Echoes of sorrow
In the shadows, I wander, consumed by love's fiery glow, Emotions ablaze, tearing through me with relentless flow. Like a fragile butterfly drawn to a flickering flame, I sacrifice all, yet find only torment in love's cruel game. Each tear that falls is a testament to my devotion, Yet those for whom I ache find joy in my emotion. My verses echo with the promise of endless pain, Lost in a dance with luck, where neither do I gain. I am adrift in a sea of despair, unable to bear the weight, As love's cruel hand seals my fate. In the shadows of memory, I'm haunted by the past, Each glance back pierces deeply, leaving wounds that last. Upon the earth's cold embrace, I find no solace, no peace, As my shattered heart bears the burden, its ache will never cease. Every step I take, I stumble on the shards of time, Torn between longing and regret, a rhythm so sublime. Why am I the chosen one, to suffer in this way? Crying out to fate, in anguish, I plea: why me, oh why today?
