Betrayal

I once had a friend, Someone I thought I knew.

We played together often and spoke only truth.

The relationship I sought, was meant as something pure.

A personal connection with another living being.

But the friendship I'd adored was nothing more than a simple illusion.

After a lot of critical thinking and past years of heartbreak,

I'd opened myself up once again,

Optimistic about this new friendship.

Seemingly I've been mistaken once again....

Set up behind my back,

Sneaking about within the shadows....

The person I'd trusted made me out to be a fool.

Everything I once held dear snatched away within the time-frame of an instance.

The sting of betrayal pricking at my heart,

Making my chest tighten in anger,

Sorrow filled tears pouring down,

voice unable to scream out,

Soul shattering beyond human comprehension....

What they've done to me, I'd of NEVER done to them.

Because in my mind,

A true friend would never cause such hurt....

That kind of Betrayal couldn't be more vile.
