Betrayed..

The darkness weighs heavy in my heart

A thousand knives pierce its soul

Blinded by promises that overwhelm the mind

Shrouded by folly and foul.

Yet hope flutters her sprightly wings

Doubt etches rays of trust

Caught in this ever frightening whirlpool

That threatens but all to dust.

Let the pain burn ever more brighter

Until this heart is but left stoned

Waves crashing on its cold surface

May perish decried and condoned.

Still hope flutters her sprightly wings

Igniting flames of love

As tears drip down unwary cheeks

And the heavens break above.
