Discarded youth

Young like a child, I trusted you instinctively.

Never once questioning your lies.

Remove the blindfold.

——————————————————

Discarding my remains.

The love between us

Has slipped away.

—————————————————————–

Once I shed tears.

Tears for the years.

No more will I cry.

——————————————————————-

Under the influence of your spell

You dragged me through hell.

I escaped.

———————————————————————-

Discarded youth,

age that once calloused the soul.

Time has left me wise.

————————————————————-

New growth,

sprouting from the crop and burn.

The scar you left on my heart.
