Betrayel
My eyes begin to burn,
tears flood my cheeks.
My throat gets dry and scratchy.
The heavy raindrops come down hard upon me,
almost as hard as the hurt in my heart.
The wings of butterflys slap my stomach,
still not letting me forget.
My soul is weakening , my self esteem has vanished.
My forehead is glazed with cold sweat,
thats when thoughts start pounding in my mind.
My life has betrayed me in so many ways,
clawing at my body , not letting go.
I stop walkin my thoughts run and hide,
I fall to my knees,
my hands clasp together,
and a mumble espcapes my throat into the air,
up to heaven where I am happy.
