Trust given should not be deceived,
Returning gold for loss, dross rotten,
Undying oath discard forgotten
Shames all, mistaken, who perceived
That understanding interleaved
Tenderness which woolly cotton
Robed round reality ill-gotten.
Untrue to principles some leave
Shards shattered where once mirror weave
Thread heart to heart not mis-begotten,
Torn apart, betrayed, foul flotten,
Regrets remaining, paining peeves.
Unbelieved apologies
STrung through spun lines no conscience frees.

That ending just gave a certain punch. Elegant word choices. Good work here. -
Beautiful!
I read this as an ode to betrayal...the void one feels when it happens and while we can always forgive something is forever destroyed. My favorite line is Shards shattered where once mirror weave. Bravo! Jane

It's really hard to do a good accrostic poem and make it worthwhile. You, however, have definitely managed. This is really neat, and just flat out pretty. You did a great job with it. I hope you have more.
