A Poetic plea: Release me
by @danica-tuquero
In whispers soft, apologies are spun,
Like magic spells beneath the sun,
Yet hollow echoes fill the air,
For they can't heal the wounds laid bare.
You say "sorry" without feeling deep,
Unaware of the scars you reap,
No effort made for reconciliation's start,
Leaving shattered pieces of a broken heart.
How can you act as if nothing's amiss,
Sending messages with a careless kiss?
Can't you see the effort I've bestowed,
While you turn the blame, letting falsehoods grow?
Your words, a dagger, twist and turn,
Making me believe it's my fault to learn.
But if your heart lies elsewhere, let it be known,
So I can find my place, no longer alone.
If it's her you seek, then set me free,
From this tangled web of deceit, let me flee.
For I deserve truth, not shadows cast,
Release me now, let go at last.
