BETRAYAL
“It was a mistake," you said. But the cruel thing was, it felt like the mistake was mine, for trusting you.” ― David Levithan, The Lover's Dictionary
I have to leave
I have to go
Away from this lonely place
I cannot stay
In this space
With our love’s memory
The one you said you loved
You betrayed
You broke my heart
Like shattered glass
Destroying my deep faith
That love can ever last
Who was this stranger?
Who was he?
The one you chose
Instead of me
Does he give you the love we had?
Does he give you what you need?
I have to leave
I have to go
To the world beyond this loss
Far away from you and him
Reminders of what could have been
What your betrayal has cost
Our future that will never be
A love forever lost
You broke my trust in love
For simple lust
Who was this stranger?
Who was he?
The one you chose
Instead of me
You gave away true love for him
Does he give you the love we had?
Does he give you what you need?
In this betrayal you call love
In this betrayal you call love
Betrayal is like the destruction of someone's heart, it hits deep, not easy to get over or forget and makes the victim weary of future love and the ability to trust.
