Why Would She Do This???

This lie has me torn and scattered. Torn the mind, and scattered the soul. Everything suspended, anger unsettled. Complacent, calm, cool collected. The question is not the problem, just the answer These words spoken unhindered, unbridled. Betrayal, treachery, disloyalty, unfaithful… Yet these words mean nothing. Anger is misused, and misfired. Dejection sets in, warmth leaves the body. Deadened nerves feel no more, numbing all. Can't take in air, stifling little box. Willing to die for one belief, one ideal. If it will ease the pain, by all means… Voices beckon a return to the light. Darkness follows leading light into the abyss. Eyes clouded by tears, yet vision clearer than ever. Sometimes the mind believes the dream you live in. Sometimes the mind believes the dream you love in.
