I am who I am. I write poetry and paint really badly. Please be patient.
I can’t help but admire
How cold hearted you became.
Is it to everyone or have
You just frozen me out.
I’m on the other side
Of the stick now,
I see the way I made you feel
When I betrayed you.
You’ve just hurt me more
Than I could ever hurt you.
I don’t understand!
Are you just taking revenge?
I’m racing to find words
Whispered in the night that
Might give a clue,
Maybe I could have known about this.
I am alone, I’ve only noticed
The truth of it now.
Previous times were different,
Now there is truly no one left.
How do I know where to go?
How do I know who to trust?
Emotions just bring pain,
Remove it, let it go, who needs it anyway?

Thank you!

I can feel your pain. So often one gets taken by surprise, not knowing how one feels after being betrayed.
A person can change after being betrayed to having a heart of stone, the love just not quite the same.
Good expression.
