He told her she was special;
That he’d never break her heart.
He’d stay with her forever;
They would never be apart.
She trusted his words,
Not once having doubts.
But little did she know,
It wasn’t her he cared about.
His love was warm
But it held no spark.
And when she needed him most,
He would leave her in the dark.
With deafening shouts, he made it clear.
His love for her had disappeared.
And once he knew she understood,
He slammed the door and left for good.
His words were empty.
His love had been a lie.
Yet still he holds her heart
Even after the last goodbye
She knew it would happen,
Truth be told.
But not once did she think
He could be this cold
The signs were there –
Clear as day.
She took no notice
And trusted him anyway
Despite being broken
She knew she’d heal.
For if love could fade
Then so could pain.
