"...betrayal begins with trust." Quote- Phish when the one you love hides in a woven tangled web of lies that stretches across the hole in their soul they wait, sharpening their talons needing to taste your heart's blood as payment for your innocence of being a fool though their love was warm and inviting once it has become colder, more calculating a game played with perspectives broken to inflict pain using trust as a coin of the realm like a weapon until every desire has been satisfied and your heart left to wither and die as it hangs on a web of entrapment until nothing is left in your heart but an empty shell how sad the soul whether through unsatiable hunger or need can move so easily from lover to lover how sordid and complicated the life that can move from passion to betrayal without a thought how empty the heart that runs hot and cold and can never be filled with trusting love 5/21/23 contest Writing Challenge "B-quotes" sponsor Constance La France
