Betrayal

Betrayal Stranger looking into me staring in my eyes hiding the deception in his careful sea of lies Slowly breaking locks I’d carefully constructed placed around my heart to appear it was hardened Breaking up my fences pulling down my walls building a friendship not heeding ancestors calls Empathic senses ringing a warning in my ear ignore it wanting closeness pretending not to hear Turning a blind eye to all the nagging signs keep my heart twisting in a knot and in a bind I read my taro and I can’t believe my eyes in shock I look down and see my quivering thighs Libras know this game better than most pour a glass of wine and you drink a toast Wolf in sheep’s clothing pretending to love me fool me once shame on you my love you’ll never see
