A Girl I Thought I Knew

Your betrayal is still fresh,
And I cannot escape the pain.
It festers in my thoughts,
Like a splinter in my brain.

Torture comes at ever turn,
I cannot close my eyes,
For fear of seeing your dark face,
Or hearing honeyed lies.

Closer then the best of friends,
Thicker then two thieves.
Thought we'd love for all of time,
But in the end she leaves.

Wounded deep and bleeding fast,
These scars are just for you.
The only one I ever loved,
A girl I thought I knew.

    That was beautiful!! I didn't connect the title with the poem while i was reading, and then the last two lines hit me, and it's just awesome. That's me though, I read the title without really reading it, then when it's over I go back and reread paying attention to what it's called. It really is brilliant.
