I used to be a soul full of love 

My heart was pure, and my spirit dove 

But betrayal and lies left me alone 

Now, my heart is as hard as a stone 

I see the world through jaded eyes 

My trust in others has met its demise 

I’ve been scorned and left to wither 

My soul now bitter like a poisoned river 

I try to let go of the pain and hurt 

But the wounds are deep, and they still assert 

I pray for solace and a new start 

But the bitterness in my heart won’t depart 

I know deep down inside 

That this bitterness I must abide 

For it is a part of who I am 

A survivor of Love’s cruel scam 

Blessings and Love! 

Thank you for reading.
