You,
Stare me in the eyes.
Tell me you'd do anything for me.
Promise me the world.
Hold my hand when I cry.
But I'm no FOOL!!
You're a pit of lies...
All of you.
I know that every-time I Turn my back,
You stab me.
You laugh.
And It would never matter,
If it wasn't for my son.
But It matters,
Because his life matters..
What have I done to deserve this betrayal?
When have I let you down?
Or left you out in the cold?
When have I abandoned you?
Or put myself before you?
Never....
I've let go of everything I have,
For you
I've sacrificed my pride,
And friendships...
My family...
To give you what you have now...
All for what?
For the blood now on my hands?
For the pain in my heart?
For the life my son is going to have to suffer through?
Thank you
For being my fool.
Always the fool

This one is for everyone that screwed me over and didn't give it a seconds thought. So whatever...I'm done...I hurt too much right now to ask for much more than that.
It's short...not really worth anything

The pain of betrayal is great!
The wounds run deep !
This is so raw and so real-
I feel you!

Very straight-forward and powerful.. emotional and true.. I have my thoughts on people in general, but that doesn't matter now. i've been betrayed before and promised a lie.. sometimes the pain can be unbearable and im sorry you have to feel that. *hugz* but Good write.. and keep writing

I'm so sorry for what you're going through.
This tore me up, Lizz. Some people just need to get their heads screwed on right, and think about what's really important. You obviously see it, so why can't they? Hugs go out to you....

This is a very powerful write you have penned here, Lizz. It makes me think of how sometimes some people in our lives may say one thing, but then won't do what they say when the time comes, like empty promises. You expressed your emotions in this poem very well. I'm sorry you're hurting. I hope you feel better. Take care.
