our roses, dead and rotting, crumble at my feet, You torched my soul, now I rise from the heat. You had my heart in chains, but now I'm breaking free, Your memory's burning,
and it's my victory.
Temporary love, it cuts like a knife,
Played your games, but I'm taking back my life. Temporary love, you left me to bleed,
But now I'm stronger, and it's you I don't need.
You whispered lies, wrapped me in deceit,
But now I'm standing strong, no more defeat. Thought you'd break me, but I'm still here, Rising higher, breathing fire, loud and clear.
Temporary love, it cuts like a knife,
Played your games, but I'm taking back my life. Temporary love, you left me to bleed,
But now I'm stronger, and it's you I don't need.
The scars you left, they scream in pain,
A twisted love, driving me insane.
From the ashes, I'm bleeding through,
A force unleashed, all thanks to you.
Your poison words, they cut so deep,
But now I'm rising from the dark, no longer weak.
Temporary love, it cuts like a knife,
Played your games, but I'm taking back my life. Temporary love, you left me to bleed,
But now I'm stronger, and it's you I don't need.
Temporary love, your flame has died,
In the end, it's me who's still alive.
Temporary love, your time is through,
Moving on now, and I won't miss you.

A strong message. Love a misunderstood word too general to apply in all cases. Powerfully written. True love is not temporary.
True love is never temp your right !
Then it wasn't love at all.
No it was not
Powerful write
What is this 'love' of which you write?
Love comes in all ways of life, either it's good or it's bad and some of it is misunderstood. Love is sometimes a force to inspire others around them. Or can sacrifice others to a toxic way that drives people to silence, or harm to themselves or others.
The repetition works well here. Could be the lyrics for a song. A strong write of romance gone wrong and then of lessons learned and moving on.
It's definitely song lyrics lately I've been writing lyrics over poems. Your right on point what this message sends out. I am so glad you understood it and loved it;)
