**In the Abyss of Lies**
In the silence of our home, where shadows crept,
I found the truth beneath the words you wept.
Each whispered vow, a venomous sting,
A serpent's hiss, hidden beneath your ring.
You spun a web, deceit so fine,
Tangled me deep in your twisted design.
Your love was a blade, sharp, cold, and cruel,
And I, the fool, played by your rule.
Bruised by words, scarred by deceit,
In your dark embrace, I could not retreat.
Your lies like chains, binding me tight,
I was lost in the darkness, devoid of light.
Your laughter, a symphony of my pain,
Your touch, a shackle, a never-ending chain.
You wore the mask of love so well,
But behind it, you were the gatekeeper of hell.
Yet in the depths of this torment and strife,
A flicker of hope, a chance for life.
A friend reached out, a hand through the gloom,
Guiding me out of your suffocating tomb.
Their words, a balm, a gentle reprieve,
Helping me see what I had to believe:
That beyond your lies, beyond your snare,
There was a world with love, with care.
So I broke your chains, I shattered your glass,
Left your dark world, let your memory pass.
In the light of truth, I found my place,
Saved by a friend's unwavering grace.
Now I walk free, no longer your prey,
The scars you left slowly fade away.
For in the light of true love and trust,
I've buried your shadow deep in the dust.
