you said you would come home
betrayal
Trust once betrayed
Enticed entreated tricked
Thin snow on thinner ice
Trust once betrayed will never
Talking about David (2)
I can’t say no to beauty. That’s why you brought me flowers, plate-sized sunflowers that sizzled, blood-red roses dripping dew…. Then one day – Leave them there on the floor. I can smell your betrayal through the crushed chrysanthemums. Walk away and leave me with the broken vase. I could name the pieces poetically but now the glass is only a function no longer needed. Be proud of what you have done.
