Betrayal.
My body is pulling me away,
But by mind is holding on.
It's like clinging for life to a cliff face,
But my arms are not that strong.
Like I'm tied above a bed of thorns,
Searching your face for hope,
Thinking you'll be the one to help. me out,
But you were the one who cut the rope.
Yet you wonder why I'm slow to trust,
Why my true self is never shown.
While you stand there with your slingshot,
Pelting my head with stones.
You don't see the tears I cry,
Alone beneath my sheets,
You don't know how close I'm coming,
to admitting my defeat.
And if you ever learn the pain you wrought,
If you ever learn to care,
Don't bother to try and make things right,
Because I will not be there.
