Notes About The Poem

Betrayal

(Rhyme) 


I've stared at the face of love 
and found it that it was in the end quite false. 
In my heart here am crying how could this ever be 
when all that I gave you from the start was my love. 
The truth of your betrayal just went straight to my heart 
you stabbed me one thousand times right on the back. 
when all I did was to trust you and nothing for you held back my love 
but you all that gave me in the end were tears pain and more sorrow. 
Nothing much of your professed devotion to my bruised love you did show 
I guess at the end of the day all you made me look was like a complete fool 
for believing that your love and vows were like mine just true and so cool. 
I see now that you never really loved me all these years as you insisted 
And all that I now see is that your love was never true for me indeed. 
I just cant believe now that I was so naïve and foolish 
You with all your lies kept me hoping and just from your strings dancing. 
How could you be so cruel and give me the last blow of all at the end 
When all I wanted to do back then was to stay with you forever and ever 
You just took my love and carelessly threw it back hatefully on my heart and face. 
My poor heart is so darn broken and only lived for so long cause of Gods grace 
Your betrayal cuts very deep little by little and when you went for my heart 
Nothing prepared me with all the pain and the darkness that you sank me in.

Gary Bateman November 19, 2014 at 7:46 AM "D" One feels the utter passion and emotion of your write here. I, too, have touched on the betrayal theme in a few of my poems too. It always constitutes that negative flip side to all those things that are bright, shiny, and flourishing with love and positive emotion. When this happens from someone you know (or thought you knew), the affect of the knife wound can be even greater with all of the attendant "pain" and "darkness." A most marvelous write here. A "7" and a FAV!! Best Always!! Gary Dorian Petersen Potter November 20, 2014 at 12:06 AM Gary my very sweet friend thank you so much for all your visits and kindness! Much appreciated. :) xxxx D.
