Loyal Enemies

We were once as close as lovers sharing things no one knew secrets, clues of inner worlds our souls unfurled Betrayal struck so suddenly caught us both by surprise narrowed eyes, reassessing messing with our minds Ties unwind unravel, turn loose sad excuse for friendship ripping, tearing all apart from the heart outward We remain loyal enemies more than mere "frenemies" for neither can afford to rat the other out!

So perfectly sums up those 'loyal enemies' who are caught up in secrets together!

This poem is beautifully done, and the ending line made me laugh so hard! "betrayal struck so suddenly..." this is how it does. I love it that you are on the phone with me while I type this!
