Betrayal
Betrayal festers inside,
allowing fear to take wing.
And putting all else aside;
deceit is an ugly thing.
Showing his malicious side,
he gathered insults to sling.
And his lies intensified;
when his sullied words didn't cling.
Tending to his injured pride,
he looked for more dirt to fling.
And adrift without a guide;
your heart forgot how to sing.
Angry tears have slowly dried
since you gave him back his ring.
Devastated that he'd lied;
you disposed of everything.
