Frenemies

Her frenemies intend to tear her life apart. She is a victim of their vicious rumor mill. While sweetest smiles conceal a dagger for her heart, She hears more lies and knows these beasts pursue her still. What still-chained evil waits to pounce and have its fill? "Frenemies" is a popular oxymoron that refers to enemies who pretend to be your friends. May 6, 2019, entered in Brian Strand's May 2019 Premiere 2 Contest

I'd much rather find myself face-to-face with someone who TELLS me, "I do NOT like you!" Thanks for the comment, Jan! Janice

Sharp and clever, 'sweetest smiles conceal a dagger for her heart' - I have met this person once or twice before!

I have always enjoyed terms like Frenemies that combine two unlikely words together. Great job with this one.
