Call it love?

Ashes of love

A heart once full, now broken and worn

Numbness sets in, like a winter that's born

Seven months of waiting, of hope and desire

Left with nothing but ashes, and a heart on fire

My mind and heart at war, a battle to fight

Torn between the love I gave, and the pain of the night

You promised me solace, a love that would last

But like a mirage, it vanished, leaving me aghast

I waited for you, through every rise and fall

Believing your words, through it all

But like a fool, I stood by, and watched it all slip away

Leaving me with just a whisper, of what could've been, each day

My heart, a heavy burden, weighed down with pain

A soul that's searching, for a love that's lost in vain

I'm still deciding, if it's gone, or just asleep

But one thing's certain, my heart will never be the same, it weeps

In this silence, I'm left to face

The shattered pieces of a love that's lost its place

I'll rise from these ashes, like a phoenix born

But for now, I'm left to mourn, the love that we once swore.
