Love after Ruins

I wore heartbreak like a heavy coat,

Carried ghosts everywhere I’d go.

Smiled in rooms just to hide the damage,

Built my life from survival habits.

Every promise sounded empty,

Every “forever” felt rehearsed.

I stopped believing love could heal me,

Thought my soul was cursed.

Then your light cut through my shadows,

Soft enough to make me

stay.

This is love after ruins,

Flowers growing through the pain.

You touched the parts they broke in me

And taught my heart again.

Now the nights don’t feel so endless,

Now the rain don’t feel the same.

Yeah, this is love after ruins… And I’m breathing once again.

You never tried to fix my scars,

You just held them without fear.

Turned my silence into music,

Turned my distance into tears.

Now your voice feels like redemption,

Like peace wrapped inside a song.

And for the first time in forever,

I don’t feel alone.

Maybe broken things still shine,

Maybe hearts restart with time.

Maybe losing everything Was how I found your light.

This is love after ruins,

After all the smoke and flames.

You rebuilt the hope inside me Brick by brick through every pain.

And if heaven sounds like anything,

It sounds like your name at night.

Yeah, this is love after ruins… Where the dark learned how to

shine.
