PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

what we witnessed

was

a crackling of tension

unfolding

by lies I can not abide

promises cheaply spoken

then broken

shred my understanding

until its raw

love should not be mislead

its a violation of one's trust

and life's karma

I left that conversation

highly disillusioned

and feeling laughed at

for my concerns

I ate and napped fitfully

not wanting to return

but stay away and think

long and hard

are these aspects of you

that I'm to expect

excuses for bad behavior

amid claims of such great love

my thoughts and heart are

tangling together in turmoil

you've punched me where it

hurts

in my trust

and then tried to lighten the

mood with jokes

like none of that mattered

and that is what has me

reeling still............................
