Betrayal

Like the water that seeps into the earth

 Slowly trickling down

 Like the wind before the rain slowly invading my space

 It’s gloom and darkness like a blanket unfold

 To cover the sun of what I hold dearest

 To dim the light of my confidence in what I trust

 Where has it gone?

The comfort that embraced me

 Now all I feel is the biting cold of a cruel reality!

Like the roots that grow into the earth

gently digging down

Like the breeze before the storm gently caressing my face

It’s cunning nature to conceal a doom untold

To rob me of what I treasure the most

To kill the hope of my faith in what I believe
Where did it go?

The love that comforted me

Now all I feel is the scorching sun of a harsh reality!

Beauty turns to ashes

Pretty petals wither

Even rainbows fade

To the earth they all go 

where the water keeps trickling down

And those roots keep digging

To feed that tree of mistrust

Ripe with fruits of doubt and pain

Its shade to comfort a dying love!
