Broken
The betrayal has cut to the bone
It never leaves my soul
I try to go about my daily life
But the pain creeps up
It cuts like a knife
It invades even my dreams
Memories that were happy
Have been decimated
Reminders have been tainted
Joy has been replaced with
Anguish
I hope it was all worth it
The eager conspirators
This greed you’ve shared
Has clouded your legacy
Turned you into pirates
Thieves
That steal
Tears fall for your souls
That will not
Rejoice
for your actions
Have determined your fate
I cannot forgive but I must forget you
To save my own sanity
I choose to honor not destroy
Have pity on your souls
Fortune
Abandonment
Money
Intitlement
Lost
Yearn for it all
Will never fulfill
For what you’ve attained
Can never bring joy
For it was acquired dishonestly
Destroying trust
