Rose Coloured Glasses

Rose coloured glasses,
And baby lullabys,
These were some of our favourite times.

The world was so new,
It was all so exciting,
Who knew that it would sting like lightning.

Life was going fine,
But then I met you.
You made me feel like I was brand new.

You swept me in,
With your sweet scent and charm,
It ended up being me you would harm.

You stabbed me in the back,
Completely broke me down,
Took everything away without the slightest frown.

She shined so bright,
And I was so dull,
You left me to rot into a brittle skull.

Today I am stronger,
Or so I think,
But you could take me back in a blink.
