Hard to Breathe

I know now that you had lied to me,

When you said that I shine like a star

And I appeared perfectly healed,

Despite on my heart, you could see a scar.

You cuddled me when I was alone,

And I melted in that warmth.

But when I got so used to of you,

You pushed me away to face the storm.

Whenever you wiped away my tears,

I felt that you would never leave me.

And when the mist hindered my vision,

You promised that you'll give me your eyes to see.

You always made me believe,

That I hadn't been sick for ever.

You coughed your spirits into me,

So that I revive myself and get better.

And your every effort paid well,

I could see myself changed.

I didn't feel myself dissolving in the pure water,

Whenever I stood still to relish the rain.

I wanted to hug you tight,

For whatever you did to me.

But you were not there this time,

To taste a piece of my glee.

I searched for you madly,

But I couldn't find you.

I asked every person of this Earth,

The destination of the girl who made me all new.

They never told me anything,

And simply dismissed my requests.

They said I was a rude person,

Who deserves to be love bereft.

It was then I came to realise,

That you had made me rough.

I was no longer kind or altruistic,

The love you gave me was a bluff.

You changed me for worse,

By weaving me in your charm.

And then you came in front of me,

Grinning wildly at my harm.

I turned back and ran as fast as I could,

While my tears marked the trail.

The betrayal you gave me so simply,

Sucked my life and made me frail.

Today when I look into the mirror,

I find my soul watching me from the other side.

I'm not myself anymore,

Behind an opaque hindrance I hide.

I've tried shattering that mirror,

And put together those sharp pieces of my soul.

But however earnestly I've tried,

I've failed to achieve my goal.

My every touch wounds my skin,

And I profusely bleed.

I cannot feel any breath of my soul,

Which makes it harder for me to breathe.
