Stars that night, were extra bright,
as they reflected in your eyes.
You gave no clue, though you knew,
your love was made up of lies.
I remember well, my personal hell,
as I knew before you spoke,
answer was no, it couldn't help show,
so, silently my heart broke.
I walked away, rued the day,
I first saw your wicked smile.
I'm glad I did, 'cause honestly kid,
I never did like your style.

Happy ending, but not happilly ever after. Your rhyme was spot on to the form and flowed with the rhythm that this form, when written correctly will always produce.
Thank you for entering the contest and sharing your talent.

Cleverly crafted and put together, and followed the form on the nose.
Think this challenge is going to bring a real good display of writers skills to the fore. Well done.

Very well done. Great rhyme scheme and a wonderful twist at the end. I did not expect the "independence" in it.
