Reject




What have you done?
 A dark cloud of betrayal looms upon our heads
As perceptions fade away,
 the true nature of your heart began to emerge.
What I feared so much has now come upon me
You have become a liar
You have become a fool in my eyes
The skeletons in your closet, have rotted to the bone
Once we were together,
 Innocent and free,
 but over time your loyalty drifted away
A murky pool of bitterness
A sea of animosity

 Thoughts follow hate, follow emptiness,

 love left on the curb to die.
No more room for smiles
No more room for joy
What once was there is no longer
You have trampled on my heart
Leaving deep imprints of your evil behind
In my eyes you are no longer a friend
You are no longer my ally
I reject you (x2)
