Unraveling the Chains of Betrayal

In shadows dark, her soul did quake,

Too many times, her heart did break,

His touch, unkind, not gentle sway,

She begged for love, day after day.

With pleading eyes, she sought his gaze,

Her heart in need, her spirit ablaze,

But lies he spun, a tangled thread,

Betrayal struck each time she bled.

The tears she wept, a silent stream,

Through restless nights, she chased a dream,

But tired now, she longs to rest,

To bid farewell, end this quest.

Yet still she clings, a desperate hold,

Why linger on, this tale untold?

In search of answers, reasons why,

She yearns to spread her wings and fly.

But in her heart, a glimmer bright,

A flicker of hope, a ray of light,

For deep within, her strength does dwell,

To break these chains, bid sad farewell.

In time, she'll find the strength to part,

To heal her wounds, mend her heart,

For love is kind, not meant to bruise,

Her journey onward, she'll choose.

And when the day of freedom nears,

No more to shed those sorrowed tears,

Her tired soul will find its peace,

In letting go, she'll find release.
