A Shattered Glass Dagger

You seduce me with your refined words

and make me believe in happiness again;

but to stab my dreams with a glass dagger

of hidden yet colorful lies.

You slowly shatter that dagger into tiny pieces

and sow them on my cracking heart.

They say that time heals all wounds,

but this time –

time is also wounded.

I clench the remaining memories of the past

as the future belongs to your growing fast

rage and the present lost in those magical eyes.

As misery is building in my soul's eyes

and my mind belongs to devastation season,

I love you more each day –

you are my addiction, demise, and only reason.
