Betrayal Is the Bitter Potion

Betrayal is a bitter poison Hearts that love sometimes endure At times there is no reason or rhyme Yet, it always cuts deeply for sure Betrayal is the bitter potion Served by your sweetest desire No reason or rhyme is there at times Some will say the universe conspires Betrayal is the unexpected Un announced, knocking upon your door At times there’s no reason or rhyme It causes mayhem; it kills the joy Betrayal is a silent killer Insidious, it creeps in your bones No reason or rhyme is there at times Beware, it's a demon on the roam ~*~ 01/01/13

A very deep and heavy poem. The 2nd stanza "Betrayal is the bitter potion / Served by your sweetest desire" Very profound. This is an awesome poem Annalise.
