The Betrayal



Looking at your face, I know your trust in me is being misplaced.

I see trust and mistrust in the looks that you give. Holding that doubt, your instincts, deep within.

Showing in your eyes that you know all I tell you are nothing but lies.

I see future pain and suffering deep within your soul. Screaming out,"I you for making me the fool."

Knowing in the end that I was so wrong for hurting and betraying my friend.
