Betreyals

It doesn't matter whether it is supernatural or your own personal experience. I am looking for all forms of betrayal. I want the emotions to be raw and vivid. Two poems per author or per collaboration. Good luck.

do these have to be new, not previously posted here poems? I have several but don't want to post if they won't qualify. jj

i would prefer one newly written poem at least. i will accept one perviously posted poem and one new poem. Thanks.

if a callb was posted but won on a diffrent post can it be entered

all sentimentality aside, go play in the niagara


she listens to you
breathing ragged
through your
teeth

until she's satisfied
you'll throw
no more
frayed
life-lines

(they weren't
to save
her)


and then

snip.

Betrayals

I begged to be known
I begged to be listened
to, but they were deaf
They were dumb

I turn to show them
I stripped to let them see
But they were blind
or pretend to be

They betrayed me
In every way they knew how
Suffer the child to come unto him
And they did so allow
this child a sacrificial lamb
To be on the altar
of evil Lust
so they might live

Your claws will dig at me no longer,
gnarled, sputum-covered digits,
cracked and crooked,
will curl inwards,
making that shaking fist forever.

But, your blood is sweet,
and the line it traces through this house
is like that of a child's game of hide-and-seek.
I find the end of it a room away,
with teenage scent and bitten lips.

I will betray you happily,
and so will she.
Her body fresher than yours,
younger too, and leaner.

The fucking heart man
The fucking heart
Beating all over the floor
Crushing it up with your callipers
Weighing it for this merry harvest
Kicking it with that jack boot mentality
That persona I used to adore
Was it as heavy as you thought?
I would pay anything to have that slab of meat back
For me it’s worth its weight in gold
It was
My last respite from the cold

Hmmm..All that is coming to me is the BFMV song your betrayal

These so called friends who let me down
Who made me feel as though I would drown?
My heart was broken, like a death to grieve,
These friends of mine, set out to deceive.
We had been friends for many years,
With much laughter, fun and tears,
We’d had good times, but that was past,
Like many things they did not last.

They did not invite me,
The hurt they caused,
They did not ring or call,
I think that just about say’s it all.
In my awful dark despair,
I really thought they would care,
A note, a card, or even some flowers,
But they were too mean to even use these powers.

They left me crying and so upset,
How could they, and yet,
“I’m alright” they probably said,
We don’t care, we’ll go ahead,
They carried on it did not matter,
They all went out for chatter,
No doubt to bitch, to stir and moan,
But they had left me, all alone.

When days were darkest, and self esteem so low,
Calls to Samaritans said it all,
They came through with flying colours,
These friends did not, that’s all that matters.
The pain they caused will not go away,
It cuts deep and strong to this day,
To put the phone down on me, screaming abuse,
To lie and try to cover up, Oh God, this is so obtuse.

I did not think I needed to explain,
But my questioning why? Fell in vain,
They tried to say I was over reacting,
They were going to invite me, but did not exactly!
How can people be so mean?
When I was always there so keen,
They did not deserve me as a friend,
I finally realized this in the end.

No peace in their lives will they ever find,
They let a friend down badly, not kind!
They bitched and moaned about each other,
This I will not miss, and don’t want the bother.
I am better, kinder, they will ever be,
Love, respect, they no longer have for me,
To me they are forever gone,
And in my life they no longer belong.
A dignified silence is all that remains,
I’m free now from all the pain,
I realize now they were not real friends,
But used me for their own selfish ends.
I really think they will, miss me,
But I’ve left them alone, and let it be,
I miss them not; it turns out in the end,
Be content with yourself, why defend?

Stand tall, be proud, have peace within,
It is only then you can begin
To be content with the way you are,
Have faith in yourself your a shining star,
Do not let friends put you down,
Destroy your love; stamp it into the ground,
Do not put up with their moans and groans,
Settle this knowledge into your bones.

I am happy now and glad of heart,
That these friends and I are apart,
I’ve moved on now and left them behind,
To each other they will never be kind.
To the rest of my life new friends have come,
Ones that you can really depend and rely on,
So take heed from my awful quest,
And remember, NEW friends really can be BEST.

My Giant

I love you,
I am yours.
You can't deny this fact!
it's in my blood,
running thicker than water.

it creates me!

Oh I thought you were mine!
I thought you were everything!
My giant,
my idol,
whose shoulders seemed so broad.
I love you!

But why does it feel?
You've turned you're back to us?
To me,
and her,
and her.
To us with you're blood.

You say you'll call,
I haven't heard it ring,
You say you'll come,
where's that knock?
I love you!
You're mine!

once upon a time...

Now you've grown small,
now you've been found out.
Now you've shrunk,
in my view.

Daddy don't leave me no more,
daddy,
I love you.
Daddy,
don't you love me to?
Just like you say you do?

I want my giant back.

And I want to hate you too.

Daddy, please, I really still Love you.

Don't screw this up to.

to: starstruck13 - no i dont think thats fair. sorry.

they dont notice me there
or maybe they just dont care
hanging all over each other
kissing teasing taking it a little further

come back up for air just for a while
her pretty little perfect smile
his eyes so intense never once straying
and he thinks im waiting
at home for him, no instead im watching them
because that girl that laughs and says im with him
also happens to be my best friend

you wear your words like
a whore paints her lips
no matter the paint job
still just a receptacle
for a hard dick
you open your mind by
opening your legs
thing is
it all smells like fish

you are nothing
probably always were
nothing
not even a friend
my discards
keep you warm at night
he still calls me
wants me
loves me
and when he's lost
in your loose, cavernous cunt
yelling for salvation
it echoes
listen closely
he stopped calling for you
a long time ago
