Betrayal's Sting
You feel frightened, rejected by love,
as depression drains hope from your heart.
For within a world of push and shove,
shared dreams dissolve when trust falls apart.
You gave him back his engagement ring,
unable to keep your anger caged.
And felt the pain of betrayal's sting
morph into disgust, as tempers raged.
You cry the tears that deception brings,
adding to your emotional strain.
Yet, there's no escape on magic wings;
broken hearts learn to deal with the pain.
You're glad the lies will finally end,
even though his leaving bothers you.
For you feel alone, without a friend,
though in your heart, you know that isn't true.
