You said I was your light,
But I was just a spark,
A fleeting moment’s comfort,
Lost in your dark.

You led me on with whispers,
Promises that felt so real,
But behind your gentle gaze,
There was nothing left to feel.

I knew I wasn’t perfect,
Yet hoped I’d be enough,
But you kept me at arm's length,
While playing it all tough.

Did you ever see a future?
Or was I just a game?
A rebound in your story,
A heart you’d never claim.

You knew you never wanted,
Yet strung me along with care,
Now I’m left with the echoes,
Of a love that wasn’t there.

I gave you all I had,
Yet you left me in the cold,
A fleeting chance at love,
Just a tale left untold.
