💔 The Iceberg of False Promises
The immense silence of the cold water was the only witness. There, floating in the gray twilight, was the Iceberg of False Promises. It was immense, electric blue, tinged with dark stains that were the wounds of time. It rose above the surface, majestic and imposing, but its beauty was a lie, an illusion.

That's how it always was with you, Daniel. You presented yourself as this ice giant: strong, cold, unattainable. But most of your being, the truth of your intentions, remained hidden beneath the surface. You only showed me the tip: your false words, your "maybes" that never came to pass, your promises of a future that only existed in the cold air between us.

You told me: "You're special." You told me: "It's just a matter of time." You told me: "It's complicated."

I, naive as I was, believed that block of ice could one day melt from the warmth of my affection. I stayed by your side, like the still sea, waiting. But each of your words was like a crack that time and truth widened. Every time you promised something you didn't mean, that part of the iceberg you showed me grew a little darker, more fragile.

Today I see it clearly. What seemed eternal and immovable is melting. Not because of my warmth, but simply because of the passing of the seasons, because of the irrefutable law of nature that says a lie cannot last forever. Lies have short legs, as my grandmother used to say.

One by one, your falsehoods fall into the water like small pieces, ephemeral and vanishing in the tasteless liquid. The whole block begins to lose its shape; the bright blue of illusion gives way to the dirty color of truth.

I walk away. The water that surrounds me is no longer a place of waiting, but an immense sea of ​​acceptance. The great iceberg of your indifference and your lies is slowly disappearing. And as I watch it crumble, I feel not pain, but a cold and serene liberation. All that remains is the clear water and the promise of a new dawn.
