Betrayal

The imprisonment of peace,
"Betrayed me, betrayed me you have!"
"Betrayed you, betrayed you i have."
Darkness,
Somewhat calming,
The essence of life,
Adventure,
And love,
Slowly slips away from my grip.
Lighthouse,
Open the door to find a beast,
Unexplainable.
No shape,
No size,
No form.
Though its eyes,
Like a wandering ocean of excitement and mischief.
"Betrayed me, betrayed me you have!"
"Betrayed you, betrayed you i have..."
Reality grabs a hold of me,
Like a small child wandering about,
Blood,
Tears of a friend fall upon my chest,
"Betrayed me, betrayed me you have..."
"Betrayed you, no, betrayed you i have not."
