Betrayed - an ache in my heart
59
Everything I wanted
Everything I longed for
You seemed to have
But now as I watch you
You’re not the same
The ache in my heart tells me
I’ve been betrayed
Your eyes that once glittered
Blue with such grace
The love that was in them
Has seemed to fade
The ache in my heart tells me
I’ve been betrayed
The love that had conquered
Sweet words that were said
Now all is gloomy
And sky looks so gray
The ache in my heart tells me
I’ve been betrayed
Where did you go
Where is that place
That leaves me crying
In hurt and disgrace
Where is the laughter
Where is the flame
That we had lit
All night and all day
The ache in my heart tells me
I’ve been betrayed
I behold strength
Tears came and they went
Now I know truth
In a heart that still aches
When I turn weak
From a smile you’ve displayed
I will remember I’ve
Been betrayed

Beautiful.
Wonderful poem...I can really relate to every word as I have experience this in my life. Absolutely fantastic and expressive beyond words...
Wow. Absolutely wonderful. You have such a gift with words....Madison! Great job!
Beautiful Madison! Very powerful. It makes me scared a bit to fall in love sometimes cause you just never know.
You did a beautiful job describing your feelings. I wonder if he knows? I totally understand what you mean about feeling "betrayed" and that it has nothing to do with infidelity. I, too feel that way. Beautiful poem, sad for me, but good enough to stir up my emotions. That's a good thing.
This is so awesome! Almost like a knife.....the feelings. Wow.
beuaitful and we remember that feeling, Maita
powerful poem and it touches the soul
I will add again, of all your poems, i like this best, it strung a chord in me, hehe, soulful if I may say!
Hi Madison22,
Feelings are so deep in this poem that it made me sad. This quote explains all......
“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.” Anais Nin
Madison22, you are very welcome, I really liked the poem. Take care & good night.
Nice poetry. You have expressed your true feeling through your written work and that's great for a writer. Keep up.
Very lovely words, and beautiful write ^_^
When you love someone and have been betrayed it is hard to gain trust again. It is hard to get over even if you want to, I too have been betrayed. Mine was my own flesh and blood, my sister. You can feel your heart as you read your poem. Very well done
