disappointment
anger
resentment
betrayal
try to do what’s right
try to make a difference
try to trust
but words
mean nothing
just words but
actions tell a different story
disrespect
no integrity
lies on top of lies
so many, it’s hard to
know what’s real
anymore
just when you think
the worst is over
the hits
just keep on
coming
What inspired this one?
It’s been building, but today was the final straw.
Good for you. Let it all out π
Hey I hope you don’t mind but I’d like to invite you to my blog at http://www.insanitybeautiful.wordpress.com
I had to…couldn’t write what I had wanted to write because I had to get it out. I’ll check out your blog, too! Thanks!
β€ I have no idea what's going on in your life right now my friend but I ave you in my heart β€
Thanks Nat! I appreciate it. π
So sorry you are having a hard time. π¦ I’m praying for you!
Thanks Robin! I need it right now. You’re a great friend! π
You managed to put my thoughts into words π¦
Sorry you’re going through this, too. It’s the worst.
In the midst of the angst, the words “and the hits just keep on coming” evoke a wry smile. It’s a valley you are in now, but there are more mountain views ahead. I’m praying for your mountain!
Thanks so much…I really hope that the mountain comes soon. Thanks for your prayers!
Ouch. I love the strength of one word lines. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks Kimberley!
Wow. This post certainly shows the power of your feelings. Your poem certainly resonates with feelings that I’ve had in the past. Isn’t it wonderful, though, that you can express yourself freely? Writing is so cathartic.
Writing helps release some of the feelings…glad I can use it as an outlet.
This line jumped out to me “so many, itβs hard to know whatβs real.” I found your line breaking intriguing on this one. Hope your day gets better!
Thanks Jessica! Me, too!
Betrayal is an unforgivable offense in my book. I hope you can take strength from those who are supportive and leave the one not worth mentioning behind.
Thanks Elsie…I wish it were that easy.
Ouch. Betrayal is a hurt that strikes so deeply. I hope this is not an ongoing thing, and that you’ll be able to move on, leaving it behind. I’m sorry you had to experience this.
I hope it’s not ongoing, too. It’s been ongoing, but I hope that it stops soon. Thanks!
our poems today…many similarities…lack of trust…it is huge…I will be thinking and praying for you. xo
Thank you so much…I appreciate this a lot. I’ll read your slice, too.
Sadly, I have been in the same boat. Betrayal and breach of trust is so hard. Take one day at a time and writing always helps…so does chocolate! π
It really is hard. Writing helps a little. I’ll try chocolate today. Thanks for your encouragement!
Nice. But no reference to a perfect circle of a hole in a villain’s tooth??
Your post is another reason we have this writing community. We are are to support each other. Let your words out, we will be here to carry you for a few moments. Wishing you a better day tomorrow!
I totally teared up when I read this. You are absolutely right. Thank you for being such a sweetheart!
I liked how you describe what betrayal is.
