Do you know what it's like to be betrayed? It's building trust with someone only for them to break it down. And you're the only one who's injured. I used to be kind. I used to give. Now I've been betrayed countless times. I can count the people, not the betrayals. I can feel it coming again. Someone I trust, after six years of friendship, is going to betray me. I can see it in her face. I've seen it again and again. That sickly sweet smile. The plastic expressions. The little things telling you they don't care. It's coming. And it's going to hit me harder than anything has ever hit me before. She'll take everything with her too. Relationships, trust, comfort, love, the list goes on and I do not care to repeat it. When you've already been betrayed, and she knows it, the thought of being betrayed again kills you. It's killing me right now. Slowly chipping away at me. So I push her away. I step away from her "friendly" greetings and smiles. I step away from her taking. I cannot, however, step away from the expectations that come with that relationship. And it's unbearable. My mind has always wondered who would betray me next. I never thought it would be her.
