Betrayal
by Jessica W.
Why would you hurt me
Why only me
I was only a child
Why couldn’t you let me be
The flash backs are painful
The heartache you gave me
How can I forgive you
If only you could see
If you’d left me alone
I’d have no pain
You should be paying
But I’m out in the rain
But you are real
Real to me
You took my childhood
You took it right away from me
What I can’t get
What I can’t understand
You I trusted
And you broke that band
The band of trust
Now the one of disgust
You’re not a friend
For getting rid of you I must
For if I never do
I’ll forever stand
In this pool of heartache
With no one to hold my hand
I’ll take this pain
I’ll keep it all inside
To sit and ponder
I sometimes wish I could die
Because every time you hurt me
It flashes in my mind
Wishing I could have stopped you
And I will in time
I sit and wonder
And ask god for me
For you I trusted
You were family
