broken heart

In the silence of her lonely nights,
She carries a heart broken and worn,
Once filled with love's radiant lights,
Now a void, a place forlorn.
 
He shattered her world without a care,
Leaving her love scattered and bare,
Took another's hand and left her behind,
Lost in memories of a love unkind.
 
She still recalls the warmth of his smile,
The touch that once made life worthwhile,
But now it's a ghost of what used to be,
A haunting ache she can't set free.
 
In the echo of his footsteps fading away,
She's left with emptiness day by day,
Yet her heart holds onto fragments of the past,
In the quiet, where shadows cast.
 
She dreams of healing, of a new start,
But his ghost lingers, tearing her apart,
Forgetting seems impossible, as she remains,
A prisoner of love's enduring chains.
