From a Little of Chatter

From a little of chatter 
From the gossip of so- called friends
They revealed another side
Of the person I knew
I trusted, I loved
I couldn’t believe them at first
But it grew so real 
It went so beyond the border
I couldn’t imagine that person 
Would not tell me
I thought that person was a better person 
I can never believe how he had to lie to me like that 
From the other people who told me
From the way they selfishly said it
My view of the other person has changed completely 
Was it a sign of God? 
Should I walk away from that person?
Is that person bad?
Would he do something that would harm me?
Scattered questions in my head talked to me
As I breathed in misguidance 
I hardly continued the day 
Wishing I never knew…

It's horrible to feel betrayed - let time pass. A lovely piece - Liz
