Betrayal!!!

With a heavy heart, I kept my stare
Oblivious of the sun’s unpleasant glare
My eyes were misty. I was in a mare
I was once at the apogee of my artistic flair
Then, I did nothing than float on air
But now thoughts of you fill me with flare
The world did rate us a perfect pair
I was intoxicated and made you my heir
You said you cared but you weren’t fair
You did in all conscience leave me bare
Someday you’ll rue the day you fled to lair
