Betrayal

In shadows deep, where trust once thrived,
A haunting tale of betrayal survived.
A friendship’s bond, once strong and true,
Now shattered, lost in shades of blue.

A whispered promise, once held dear,
Now twisted by deceit, crystal clear.
Like petals plucked from a fragile rose,
Betrayal’s thorns, the heart exposes.

False smiles masked hidden lies,
Tears stain the cheeks, where hope resides.
A bond unraveled, trust undone,
In betrayal’s wake, love comes undone.

Oh, bitter sting of a trusted friend,
Whose treacherous path we failed to comprehend.
Yet in the depths of this grievous fall,
Resilience rises, mending heart’s call.

For wounds may heal, scars may fade,
But lessons learned, forever made.
In the crucible of betrayal’s strife,
We find the strength to rebuild life.

So let us forge ahead, our spirits unbound,
With caution and wisdom, our hearts surround.
For though betrayal may cast its relentless spell,
We’ll rise above, in grace, we’ll dwell.

Quote of the Week

It’s so hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.

~Chuck Palahniuk

Fear is good. In the right degree it prevents us from making fools of ourselves. But in the wrong measure it prevents us from fully living. Fear is our boon companion but never our master.

The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.
