Earl, My Betrayer

I thought you were my friend, so true, A bond that felt so strong, so new. We shared our dreams, our laughter bright, But shadows crept into the light. Earl, you wore a friendly guise, But hidden deep were selfish lies. You turned your back when I was low, A dagger hidden in your show. I trusted you with all my heart, But now I see you've played a part. A smile that masked your cold disdain, A friendship lost, replaced by pain. Now I stand with lessons learned, From trust betrayed, a fire burned. Earl, my enemy in disguise, I rise anew, I cut the ties.
