Fading Love: A Tragedy Unfolded

Pure love at first, like a blooming rose

Softly whispered words and gentle prose.

Our hearts entwined, our souls as one

Innocent and pure, our love began.

We laughed and loved, we dreamed and hoped

Our hearts bonded, and forever we eloped.

A feeling like no other, it was true,

My love was eternally meant for you.

Small cracks appeared, in our love parade

Love faded like a flower withering in the shade

The petals fell off, color waned

The doubts about my love, crypt on my mind.

We fought and cried, we pushed and pulled

Our once strong bond now felt dull

Though we tried to hold on tight,

The love we shared, lost its light.

The candle that once burned so brightly,

Now, flickered and had no light.

Communication faltered, and trust was broken

Our love, once whole, was now just a token.

We tried to mend, what was torn apart

But the damage done, left a gaping heart.

Leaving only the memories and heartache,

And the tears that we couldn’t hide.

I broke the soul that hugged my scars,

Letting her drift away just like the stars.

The love we shared, is now a distant dream

Our tragedy played out like a silent scream.

Love is never meant to be fair,

The same love, that leaves us in despair.

Love’s tragedy, a story often told,

But never one that I thought I’d ever hold.
