Betrayal 19 May 2019
Sat to write this piece of my life
Got stuck on where to start and write
Every time I fell after an unexpected betrayal
I chose to raise again much strong than the trial
Instead of deeper thoughts and meaningless regrets
Salute to the people who chose to hit on my back
And to the experiences that I can charge to my track
In the name of love and care, when I lost some
I could only thank for the times that were awesome
Instead of holding grudges that would heavy my heart
I found my freedom, as I let them go as an art
In the name of relations, when I was tested and tired
I chose to distance from the toxic betrays
For hope and faith, happened to be my guide!
I started to walk away showing myself sunrays!
As long as I don't betray my own self
Being stuck in the dreadful past
Or in the fear of the future,
There can be no betrayal stronger
Than my will and my hope and faith
There can be people who hit on my back
Make me fear the very existence of life and pack
Yet, I chose to forget and forgive and move on
For they can betray me, but, how can I?
There is only one life, to live and rejoice
Vida Magica, as my god-daughter always said
So not even death can betray my very self
For I chose to be strong and at peace
