Betrayal

A Stab in the Back

By Shyanna GastonPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

How can someone just wake up one day

And decide you aren't worth their time?

But they expect you to be okay.

They stab you in the back

But no, you can't bleed.

What logic this lacks.

How can they get your hopes up

Then turn them down?

I guess to them you just weren't enough.

But no, you have to pick yourself up from the dirt

And brush off the dirt.

Like you've never been hurt.
