Fathers Betrayal

A betrayal that tears, I pales my very core Deep and destructive, forever is a lie Truth laughs, it was never alive All I believed, never belonged to me Out of softness and comfort, comes cold, jagged screams Grief in the face of cruelty Life now dead and diseased A gaping wound that will never scar, never heal A thick, stinging blanket covers me Blind me again, I do not want to see Take my words, go on, go ahead Twist them, exploit them Spit on them, Sell them for more power, more lies I final gift for you to murder
