Betrayal...
A word we use in stories,
of broken trust and hearts...
Of hurt and lies, and gloomy
skies, that causes tears to start.
A calculated act of hurt,
that makes another cry...
It causes hearts, once
full of trust, to stop and just ask why.
Betrayal is a demon spawn,
of lies, deceit, and more...
It's been here since the
dawn of time, like fog upon the moors.
It lives within the hearts
of some, and they hide it very well...
I never would have ever
guessed, you'd send my heart to hell.
The words you spoke, betrayed
our love, and broke my heart so deep...
There are times, they
echo still, but I no longer weep.
And should you come, with
sweet soft words, to try and make me weak...
I can look upon your eyes
and see, betrayal as you speak.
