HOLES OF BETRAYAL
The holes were plain
For all to see, clear as day
Like every word pressed from tight lips
Heavy, weighed down with lead.
Yet we chose to believe
Clinging to words for relief
Some of us danced
Caught in the endless trance.
Half a decade passed in a blink
Now we question what we heard
Were those words ever true
Or just echoes from years before?
Their efforts now feel hollow
Trying to patch sails with holes
Drifting lost on restless seas
Like a mind caught between drunk and sober.
