Lost Trust Poem by Jessica A. Kelly

The words you spoke meant to injure me, and with the same smile you call me a friend? The hurt of knowing your words have all been useless lies…Once turned to for support now knowing it was a joke. The mess of your friendship, the lack of your trust. Can I speak to you as if it hadn’t occurred? Can I forget that inside you think of how to destroy me? The illusion I allowed to remain for so long….The illusion that you were a friend and deeply cared of my existence. The absence of that illusion turns my mind to disgust. The new found truth of your intentions of disaster. Your hope for my failure while at the same time I hope for your success. Many words I have spoken to relieve those who had a clouded opinion of you…only now I see they knew the truth while I was the one who was blind. The rose colored glasses are lost and a new view is gained…The view of a girl who whispers in the dark your secrets meaning to destroy your happiness and cause you pain. Yet you still remain clueless to the obvious issue at hand..you search for a reason for this madness only to find the bridges are gone…the path has been blocked, no entrance permitted to gain wisdom of my interests…no chance allowed for you to access my inner soul and whisper again my secrets…Again I look at you and cry because a friend who became an enemy in one breath still yearns for peace.
