Betrayal's Sting

You feel frightened, rejected by love; while doubt drains all the hope from your heart. And within this world of push and shove, your dreams dissolve when trust falls apart. You felt the pain of betrayal's sting morph into anger, as tempers raged. And you gave back his engagement ring, refusing to keep your anger caged. You always felt time would improve things, not add to your emotional strain. Yet, there's no escape on magic wings, a broken heart; must deal with the pain. You want the lies and pretense to end, and yet his leaving still bothers you. You feel all alone, without a friend, but you're depressed, and know it isn't true.
