Betrayal Poem by Phil Charters

traitor!
whom my heart
burns
with the fire of betrayal
and flees victorious
my stolen soul
grieving for friendship
lost, to the will of self
like Rob Roy
broad sword brandished high
slayer of innocent souls
he runs
runs, without honour
shame should fill his heart
for mine is broken
left are shattered lives
their fate is mine
for of the clan
we are not
so by this modern day
highland chieftain
we are damned.
