Betrayal Poem by Arti Chopra

Betrayal

Rating: 3.5


Our glances clashed,
Met.......
A single tear
Pearl like,
Wet.......
Rolled bravely down
My lonely cheek,
Your eyes darted away
Guilt ridden
So weak
Your face emotionless,
My eyes, a caress,
A single nerve twitched,
Like a dark poem
Across a page bewitched,
And I looked,
For a sign
On the blank canvas of your
Lying face,
Trying to see a lamp of hope
Light up
Those vacant eyes
Which I thought were mine
Eyes from which I had drunk deep
Like a glass of heady wine
But to no avail
You turned
Eyes downcast
And walked right away
From the empty spaces
Inside my reproachful
Bleeding heart

It's a beautiful poem! 'A single nerve twitched, Like a dark poem Across a page bewitched, ' - Is a beautiful expression! 'And I looked, For a sign On the blank canvas of your Lying face, Trying to see a lamp of hope Light up Those vacant eyes Which I thought were mine' - Very poetic indeed! I think this poem is underrated and am surprised to see no comment yet from any reader, I am very pleased to rate it 10/10. Well done!
