Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

What Doesn'T Kill You Makes You Stronger

I never saw it coming
I would have done anything for you
You blindsided me
Hurt and violated me
Stripped me of my dignity
I trusted you

Timothy Mcguire February 10, 2019 at 3:21 PM Like the song says, "you don't know what you got till it's gone" this poem says a lot Line Gauthier February 10, 2019 at 4:40 PM Betrayals come in many forms and from people you would never expect. Life throws hard curve balls.

Caren Krutsinger February 10, 2019 at 11:43 AM Line, you have captured the emotion, and it sounds fresh. Line Gauthier February 10, 2019 at 12:27 PM Thanks for your much appreciated visit and comment, Caren.

Kim Rodrigues February 10, 2019 at 11:18 AM Sounds like betrayal! Nice emotive write, Line! Line Gauthier February 10, 2019 at 12:27 PM Yes absolutely, Kim. They certainly are related. Here's how I see the difference, in this case anyway, betrayal is the 1-on-1 feeling and humiliation includes the impact with respect to everyone in one's environment.
