Random poem I wrote last night

Make of it what you will - I feel a bit weird posting something like this on here, but thought hell why not
Alone again, broken, ashamed
The way you speak, the way you behaved
Raked in fire, burned from within
Your malice forgotten as time wears thin
The message clear, yet no response I'll make
Your darkest whispers I do forsake
Be gone with this, take this pain away
Remove your lies, give me just one peaceful day
I took your hand, and I held on tight
You showed me freedom, you showed me light
Thrice we wavered, and thrice we died
Yet reborn we were, with lovers' pride
But something shifted, something turned
A loathesome secret, my name you burned
You buried the memories, you smashed the dreams
And as we were born again, it was to the other's screams
His words you heeded, his lust you stole
The lightning struck, the thunder rolled
We came that day, to say farewell
But you sent me, silent, to my personal hell
But we still live on, though your love is lost
And for the price of your pleasure, I paid double the cost
You can weave your web, say your sooth
But know that I know you, and I will always find the truth
Someday you'll realize, someday you'll see
Someday you'll rise, someday you'll be free
For in my heart, you linger in the shade
But the door remains open, this love will never fade
Alone again, broken, ashamed
The way you speak, the way you behaved
Raked in fire, burned from within
Your malice forgotten as time wears thin
The message clear, yet no response I'll make
Your darkest whispers I do forsake
Be gone with this, take this pain away
Remove your lies, give me just one peaceful day
I took your hand, and I held on tight
You showed me freedom, you showed me light
Thrice we wavered, and thrice we died
Yet reborn we were, with lovers' pride
But something shifted, something turned
A loathesome secret, my name you burned
You buried the memories, you smashed the dreams
And as we were born again, it was to the other's screams
His words you heeded, his lust you stole
The lightning struck, the thunder rolled
We came that day, to say farewell
But you sent me, silent, to my personal hell
But we still live on, though your love is lost
And for the price of your pleasure, I paid double the cost
You can weave your web, say your sooth
But know that I know you, and I will always find the truth
Someday you'll realize, someday you'll see
Someday you'll rise, someday you'll be free
For in my heart, you linger in the shade
But the door remains open, this love will never fade
