Betrayal
Surrounded by numerous faces
An intangible feeling lingers
Lost in this treacherous world
Of a nightmare such as this
You were my strength,
My shield in the tumultous rain
In your presence I had peace
Safe in your warm embrace
In an instant it vanished
A figment of my imagination
You became a vile creature
My handsome prince disappeared
The same familiar hands
Which gave me comfort
Now stung like a wasping bee
Scotching my very soul
A willowy shadow of sadness
Eyes Erupted like a big dam
Big droplets hit the counter-top
Beside the shattered glass
The pain pierced my soul
Plunging me into a bottomless pit
Drowning in the deep despair
Of your great betrayal
