Betrayal

You love, and then you love more fearlessly,

Letting down your guard because you believe love conquers all,

And with it we can get through anything,

But what happens when the heart that contains all of your love is ripped out of your chest,

Thrown down and stomped on,

What happens when that love stings,

Sending shooting pains through out your veins,

When love becomes betrayal,

When trust dies and hate is birthed,

Does love conquer all?

Or does it watch us fall,

Do we breath through the pain,

Adhering to what we knew to be true,

But is it true anymore?

What do we have after this?

The world we once knew can no longer exist,

When lies persist,

I was betrayed and lied to,

My life and health was put at risk,

My love was put on the line of fire,

Just when I thought we were reaching higher,

If this is love and what we so impatiently seek to fall into,

I wonder if I truly seek to be apart of that club of wonders and unknowns,

Fairy tales were child’s play,

Reality strikes eventually through the dawn of the day,

And I question so many things,

Why do we risk it all for that butterfly tingle?

And the in between the sheets mingle,

We gamble our hearts with high hopes of a win,

But our chances of such luck have always been thin,

 Like love this has no ending,

And with this letter my heart I am sending.
