The true nature, hidden behind a facade

Lured in by a convincing act of fraud

Beneath the surface

Self worth had faded

Controlled by affection, manipulated

It was a battle of survival

Tumbling like a leaf in a storm down a spiral

No empathy-no mistake

A deliberate act, no kindness fake

You were not loved

You were used.

Used discarded pulled apart

An empty shell a hollow heart

But the truth, though bitter, can set you free

Unraveling lies,you begin to see:

You were never the pawn, never the fool

Strength was inside, calm and cool

Let love be real, let affection be true

For respect and kindness belong to you

Never settle, and don’t look back-

You’re worthy of all that your heart lacks

Real love will come, respect will stay

And you’ll rise above on a brighter day

Never settle, never bend

For you deserve the best to the very end.
