Bryn Strudwick Poet Rhyme

I Dream of Betrayal

I DREAM OF BETRAYAL 

                        I dreamt of you again
            I thought all that was past
But there you were, recalling all that pain,
Just when I thought that I’d moved on at last.
                        You stood, arms open wide,
Inviting me once more to come inside,
Rekindling the love I thought had died.
      You smiled that special smile,
            And for a while
                        My heart forgot your ruthless guile.
But then, behind you, tall and vain
            He stood; the villain of the cast
      The one who’d snatched you from my side.
            Please don’t come again, I’m too fragile.

Line Gauthier November 27, 2018 at 7:12 AM Well penned, Bryn. True love strikes the unsuspecting heart at the strangest times. What a cruel waste of energy when we're stuck loving someone who doesn't deserve it. Been in both places... there is nothing that compares to loving someone who is committed to you.
