A word of honor broken,
A home that was never filled.
Betrayal of a friendship,
A small and bitter pill.

Cyanide seeps through the veins
Of a friendship gone astray.
Damaged cells relay nerve’s pain,
An anguish words can’t say.

Embitterment cloves friendship
With such a sullen blow –
Waves created rock and dip
The feelings never show.

The feelings cannot show.
