Vine of ashes

Amidst my worst despair
You gave  the warmest smile;
Easing the painful chill
In my so freezing heart.

Your arms brought comfort
In truth it sows a painful curse;
A beauty of facade
An art of deceit as its best.

My heart turns to ashes
From so much trash and bash and smash...
It grays in its darkness
Vine sprouts that wiggle in struggles.
