Bitten by an Iscariot snake

Bitten by an Iscariot snake 
#blossommonyei 

I trusted you, we had our fun,  
Shared so much, thought we were one.  
But when I needed you the most,  
You turned away, just like a ghost.

It hurt so deep, I felt alone,  
Lessons learned, a heart of stone.  
Now I see who’s really true,  
I’ll be careful with friends like you.

Though pain is real, I’ll find my way,  
Stronger now, come what may.  
Betrayal stings, but I will rise,  
Building trust, with clearer eyes.
