In the dance of deception, your steps entwined,
A betrayal veiled, a sinister design.
In shadows, you orchestrated my demise,
A symphony of deceit, a mask of lies.

Initially, you wore decency like a guise,
Yet, lessons taught you well in love's demise.
Heartless, you stand, a creation untamed,
No justification, a soul unclaimed.

Regret echoes in the aftermath's haze,
A dance floor memory, lost in a maze.
Why cheat, I thought the only rival was me.
Each sunrise, questioning what we could be.

Crazy, I am, unraveling the threads,
Did you care, or just fill empty beds?
Shoot my heart, revel in the blast,
Moon tears fall, a heart trapped and cast.

In squares of ignorance, lies, and despair,
Tied with sides of sorrow, depression, and care.
I walk away, weak and weary,
In the noon's darkness, an ocean's dreary.

Trapped heart, searching for love to consume,
In the depths, a silent, mournful gloom.
Now I ponder what truly matters,
Unspoken, the rescue from love's shattered splatters.

Behind my door, a refuge I find,
Wooden floor bears scars of love's cruel grind.
An injured soldier, love's aftermath,
A knife in my soul, a silent warpath.

In love's battles, no victor emerges,
Memories linger, the pain converges.
Recovery's facade, a cracking core,
Discarding memories, a relentless chore.

Shadows of oaths, loyalty's ghost,
Strength in silence, hurt the most.
Behind closed doors, emotions secure,
A sanctuary for the heart's obscure.

In the stuff we can't explain,
Pain silently weaves its intricate chain.
Complaints seem odd, but the heart's refrain,
Insanity reigns in the mind's terrain.

Calm exterior, a deceptive veneer,
Inside, a hurricane of thoughts unclear.
What you call a spark, to me, a flame,
Not lame, just not playing the same game.

I endure for a while, but limits attain,
Love transcends mere entertainment's domain.
Duties to deliver, rights to claim,
In the realm of love, authenticity's name.

In the confines of our shared space,
Imperfect yet genuine, our moments embrace.
Fun we find in our own decree,
A conversation weaving its unique glee.

You yearned for a drive, a stolen key,
I suggested mischief, you opted for TV.
Piano notes echoed, counting silently,
One, two, three, a tempo in harmony.

Now, boredom lingers, a wish to be free,
As a bird soaring or a honeybee.
Dreams of faraway places overseas,
A thousand destinations where you'd rather seize.

Top of a mountain for a ski,
A quiet spot with somebody,
A picnic with friends, biscuits and tea,
Yet here you are, stuck at home with me.

You claim a strong heart, resolute and bold,
Yet, all women's hearts, tales of clay unfold.
Perhaps a departure left scars to replay,
Or love's nuances painted life in shades of gray.

Whether you've loved deeply or stayed away,
Your experiences shape the words you convey.
Love's a dance, sometimes a disarray,
A rhythm you navigate, night and day.

In our brief exchange, a glimpse on display,
One facet revealed, in a conversational relay.
Sweetheart, you're a gem, no need to betray,
Envy may linger, for the lucky one in your array.

Oh my, Oh my, soaring in the sky,
Yearning for wings, a wish to fly.
Mountains climbed to say Hi,
Chasing highs, reaching the sky.
Worth the journey, my joy supply,
Forever glued, I'm August, she's July.
But our love's tie, oh how it could die,
Rushed, goodbye missed, oh my, oh my.

Gravity, a growing cavity,
In search of her, a painful reality.
Loads of agony, changing normality,
Sounds like insanity, fueled by vanity.
No weapons but anatomy,
Cream making youth a rapidity.
They crave physicality,
Ignoring love, devoid of spirituality.

Crossing worlds, expending energy,
Here she is, Hey, it's me.
Pardon? Lost memory,
Years after the treasury.
Love's treasure lost in amnesia,
Won't give up, a lover's anesthesia.
Centuries may pass, still, I'll plea,
To win her back, restore love's directory.

Destiny sent a helpful friend,
Grateful, he aids the mend.
Reunited, chemistry blend,
Life's melody, a love to tend.
Ups, downs, and instability,
Yet love grows exponentially.
Great love, great ability,
Stronger than gravity, with credibility.

They say you can't fight gravity,
Yet, love stronger, rewriting history.
Love altering the course, a mystery resolved,
Inspired by "Upside Down," our story evolved.

Listen, can you hear it too? I love you,
Do you truly have to go? Already missing you.
We'll find each other, okay? You smiled,
Patiently waiting, for you, reconciled.
Here you are, eyes in the distance,
Why not coming my way, in this existence?
Can't you hear my heart play,
The symphony of our love, written to stay?
Someone takes her away,
More than love, it's my soul they sway.

Two parts of you growing inside,
The seed named "you," roots deep reside.
A million under our love's sun,
And a part of your soul, merging, begun.
I can't help but stay away, so sad,
Lost control, thoughts gone mad.
Rushing away, where am I now?
Told I lost him, opening my eye, somehow.
A piece of me died,
For ten years, calm on the outside.
Every night, his presence near,
Feeling his little palm, so dear.
Sure he's alive, a hopeful strive,
But the truth eludes, can't take a dive.

No matter how long it takes,
Down in a dark ocean, the soul awakes.
Too dark to see any motion,
Yet, I can listen, a devoted devotion.
Ten years have passed, love persists,
I still need you, I still insist.
I'll find you, but how?
Last time, I listened, I remember now.
Hearing a sound, growing louder, the echo,
Positive, I know, in this dark tableau.
Whose playing our symphony, the little kid! Bravo,
Oh, she's here too, the love's crescendo.

That's the sound of our love's decree,
Could it be?
He held my hand,
Found me, as we planned.
We found him, in the echo's key.
