Friend

A friend,

What you were to me.

Pouring secrets and sorrows

From behind my eyes-

To you

Others gaze into my eyes

Watching clear translucence

-Their reflection-

But you-

Once seen past yourself

See through me.

Then betrayal

-Sour and eternal-

Reminiscences of harsh memories remain

In physical manifestations

A mock feeling

Unreasonable trust

Still, feelings regained

A powerful force unscathed by previous betrayal.

Scars almost healed

But then you handed me the blade.
