on the above gray
And betrays its greed
under a purple sky
Without thought...

The Light Betrays

 one only one
  one for now
   one forever
    one to see all 
     one to know all
      one to rule all
       one there is only one...

Defiant
Walking away was 
the strongest thing
She ever did
Although her heart
 still whispers and
Her body betrays
His lustful touch 
she still so desired...

Premium Member What are friends for
Sadness in her eyes,
betrays the camouflage donned,
of mundane idle banter.

There’s a sacredness,
respected at such moments,
holding hands, entwining hearts....

He pushes far beyond his limits, never knuckling under even when
his spirit betrays him! On a scale of one to ten, always gives a ten!...

True Colors
an orange betrays its true colors
GREEN when immature, its namesake when "ripe"
an apple, hides its true flavors
Green when "green" but from red passion to yellow lies...

Coping
Good always betrays
         (me??)
     Finches to burn the Air!
         (in the upper atmosphere. . .)
     Sloth opens the freezer;
     Drops smooth ice Cubes into booze....

Betrayal
A friend who inspires 
Is a friend that poops
A friend that laughs 
Is a friend that poops
A friend that betrays
Is a friend that does not deserve to poo

Don't betray a friend....

a feather falls
the bird knows not
and even if it does
it cares not

objects we cling to
betrays lack of trust
in God’s benedictions 
signalling delusion

let us become
the bird...

Chaos
The chaos betrays this calmness
forced into a smile
the pain basks in numbness
hiding beneath his guile

no one sees it for what it is
no one cared to know
in those eyes lies no bliss
anger it has sowed...
