BETRAYAL Forgive and Forget They say Let bygones be bygones Move on How can this be? Your words Like daggers pierced my heart To bleed I trusted you In total My eyes blinded by your smile Not seeing What guile lay Behind you Hidden from my understanding Such deceit I was gone only a moment You acted And when my heart lay wounded You retracted But things shall never be As before For I’ve seen you now I know Forgive and forget I’ll try But even so –it will never be The same S.A.T. |

You spark such feeling and a need to respond of a heart to heart... When you feel alone in this, know that many have shared disappointment...betrayal. There is a moment when two hearts face each other and traverse the past in the name of love, or depart the trail in the name of pain. Forgiveness is the embrace of acceptance in my eyes...just a thought. Loved this in it's honesty and purity. TD |

Happily this betrayal, though painful and stunning in its measure, was not from one of intimate standing. Ne're the less, pain is . . . and words are the tonic. Susan |
