Tag: Betrayal

  • Betrayal…!

    Betrayal is hard

    It comes from those close

    Tears and pain

    Is what always follows…

    Betrayal brings sorrow

    It leaves one in utter grief

    No clue of why it was so

    One is left in disbelief…

    Betrayal brings sheer surprise

    One is left totally shaken

    What went wrong and where

    With such thoughts one gets overtaken…

    Betrayal brings depression

    Everything looks black

    Who can one trust then?

    One’s own when in it lacked… 

    Betrayal sadly also brings self-doubt

    One starts questioning self

    Those self-committing feelings

    Get very tough to be shelved…

    Betrayal brings change too

    One decides not to be fooled again

    The once forgiving heart

    Closes doors on everyone then… 

    Why does betrayal exist

    Why can’t people stay true

    What do they gain from backstabbing,

    Don’t they fear they can receive it too!!!

  • The same hurt…!

    I don’t know how I forget

    How always you behaved so curt

    Why on earth do I let myself

    Go back to the same hurt!

    I wonder what made me forget

    Those things that I’d heard

    Then how on earth do I let myself

    Go back to the same hurt!

    I must be crazy to forget

    Your selfish deeds and words

    Really silly of me I know

    To go back to the same hurt!

    Why did I think you’ve changed

    Why did I expect a U-turn 

    Must be truly crazy of me

    To get back to the same hurt!

    How long till I learn my lesson

    How long till I give up

    Why don’t I learn to discount you

    And stop going back to the same hurt!

    Gradually you’re also improving

    As each time you outdo your worse

    Still, like a mad person that I am

    I land myself in the same hurt! 

    High time I give up on you

    High time I understand my worth

    High time I do whatever is needed

    And stop going back to the same hurt! 

    Sometimes out of courtesy

    Other times due to my soft heart

    Even, because I don’t know

    This horrible, hurtful art

    I’ve given enough second chances

    Enough excuses to your erratic self

    No more, I’ll keep reminding myself

    Just STOP – going back to the same hurt!

  • Lurking Snakes….!

    5

    Beware of all those lurking snakes
    Waiting to strike and bite
    Callously and with not much thought
    They will come and strike!
    They pretend as if they really care
    They laugh and say flowery stuff
    Behind your backs all they want
    Is to hurt you and get rough
    They don’t bother who they hurt
    How much pain they cause
    I wonder do they even have a heart
    Do they ever think or pause
    How much ever good you do
    Whatever you do to help
    These creeps will cause the pain they want
    They will leave you alone to yelp
     
    Only thing which gives some peace
    Which stops me from saying more
    Is the faith that they will see their fate
    They will pay for each heart they tore
    Divine vengeance is what comes in
    When such types think they’ve won
    And when HE strikes – believe me
    To help them there will be none!
