The Worst Betrayal, Suicide
It may sound selfish that I felt betrayal when you died,
but you vowed to never act upon those urges once more.
You lied time and time again, and o, how I vastly cried-
that last time I knew was different than before.
You deceived me the moment you said goodbye in vain,
now only heartbreaking memories of duplicity remain.
I try to move on without anxiety, try not to complain,
but a tragic breach of faith of was tragically conveyed.
O, how I wish you would have felt the love and stayed-
you knew how to find happiness, you were just so afraid.
So now I’m girdled in woe since you committed suicide,
left despondent and grief-stricken from this severe abhor.
You shadowed me like midnight cascading in disdain-
I feel utterly abandoned…FOR IT WAS ME WHO YOU BETRAYED.
