Betrayal

Sadness engulfs,
tempers flare,
trust dissolves,
does anyone care?

Alone to cry,
sleepless nights,
jealousy possesses,
endless fights.

Strangers appear,
love's pretence,
shameful journey,
makes no sense.

  9. the voice of your verse seems so sad, so betrayed.
    I feel like writing a verse to tell your verse that there is always someone who cares and that love isn't always a pretence. x
