The night fades 


The stars rearrange 

You said you'd be here with me 

Legs draped over the rooftop 

Waiting out the sunrise 

Where are you now? 


I saw the beauty in you 

I mean, that's what everyones Mum tells them to do 

Right? 


 The clouds are turning grey I'm falling straight into your lies 

They say there's meant to be a rainbow 

At the end of the storm 

Right? 


 You've ruined my thoughts 

Draped them in a thick cloud of gloom 

I once dreamed of love as a fairytale 

I mean, that's what everyones Mum tells them it is 

Right? 


Once I saw bright fields of colour 

Now I see desolate rubble 

You shattered my heart 

Trust issues filling its place 


 Oh, how dumb I was to think 

That love was a mere fairytale

 I've since discovered it's a fantasy 

Buried at the back of your memories 

Constantly haunting you 

A nightmare. 


 Why have you done this to me? 

I'm broken





I bet you won't guess what song I was listening to to get inspiration for this poetry🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😂
