the ghost of past love

"Once upon a time, I loved someone with all my heart and soul. We shared a deep connection that began in childhood, and I believed our love would last a lifetime. When he proposed in 2017, I thought my dreams had come true. But as the years went by, our love story took a painful turn.

Despite my unwavering dedication, he began to drift away, and our love turned cold. I tried to hold on, but he became distant and unkind. The final blow came when I discovered his secrets - a hidden ex and a web of lies. My heart shattered into a million pieces.

But that wasn't the end. He tried to use me physically, and when I refused, he lashed out in anger. He threatened to harm himself if I revealed the truth to my family. I felt trapped and alone, with no escape from the pain.

In the end, he betrayed me in the cruelest way possible - marrying someone else. I thought our love was forever, but forever has come and gone. Now, he's engaged to another, and I'm left to pick up the pieces of my broken heart.

My love story is one of heartbreak, betrayal, and the struggle to move on. But I know I deserve better. I will rise from the ashes, stronger and wiser, and learn to love myself once more."
