Betrayal

The shadows where secret vows are made, With smiles hiding their true meaning, The quietness echoes from vacant Grounds of treachery. Eyes meet, the trust is just a flash! They get lost in the words that say nothing, Their hands join but they are cold, Patterns of betrayal lying below. Harsh laughter marks emptiness, Masks slip revealing hidden truths; A tapestry woven with threads of deceit Binding hearts in knots. So we dance in the masquerade, Where enemy becomes ally and friend turns to foe; For only our hearts know better than this fake world That tastes truth as bitterness.
