Shattered

You shattered me, the final soul I believed  

Held my well-being above all, a deceptive weave.  

Your care, it seemed, was but a conditional art,  

Present only when it served your heart.  

You profess love, claim I'm your true desire,  

Yet with another, you kindle a lesser fire.  

You lament their clinginess, seek refuge in my grace,  

But replicate the wrongs, a familiar disgrace.  

You've razed the trust I once freely gave,  

Leaving me to navigate a lonely, wary wave.  

Now, you stand with those who've shown me clear,  

What I seek not in life, whom to steer near.  

This lesson, though harsh, has opened my eyes,  

To discern truth amidst a sea of lies.  

I'll forge ahead, with a heart both wary and wise,  

Seeking a love that no longer disguises its guise.
