BETRAYAL

#### A Sonnet About Disloyalty

**Disloyalty cuts profound like a knife,**

**It wounds at the heart and takes life.**

**Trust broken, confidence shattered,**

**Kinship lost, love battered.**

**The aggravation waits long after the act,**

**Recollections won't blur into the past.**

**Scars remain however wounds may heal,**

**Trust is hard to reseal.**

**So be cautious who you trust,**

**Monitor your heart with care and gust.**

**Steadfastness and reliability give,**

Be that as it may, admirably and circumspectly live.**
