A Betrayal of Friends
A betrayal of trust,
When I thought
Our friendship was just
A companionship built
On common ground,
Shared worries,
Similar insecurities
I adored talking with you,
Finally, someone
I could open up to
I thought it was mutual
For you, too
After years of being friends,
Spilling old stories,
Reassuring new failures,
You suddenly disappeared
Never to speak a word again
To this day, I wonder
If it was something I did,
If it was something I foolishly said,
Maybe you just
Never truly cared
All I can say is
It was a betrayal
Of blind trust
