betrayal
Cici Liu Oct 2018
i confided my deepest thoughts to you,
the thoughts i share to myself when it is no longer light
the insecurities, they haunt me when i’m alone
but you, you knew them too well
i guess even milk can make you queasy
if you realize you’re lactose intolerant
maybe thats why im so devastated, i guess
can we just let it be? can we just be strangers
who pass each other in the hallways, ignore him
instead you decide to sting me indirectly
through the whispers in the wind
that sends chills down my
aching spine
like a blind bee to a flower
i guess no matter how you hurt me
bees always crave honey right?
i can never taste your honey
too blind to see through your pretty face
even though it’s right
in front of me
the honey is poison
artificial
maybe an emerald mask you wore when i was vulnerable
when in all reality you were just
charcoal
not a diamond in the rough
but merely something common
you don’t deserve to be the one that got away
i should be proud to say i got away
just imagine the what ifs
what if you stayed for him longer
what if you dug the sand from your heart again and made him a sand castle
what if
what if
what if
forget that ******
this is a poem i wrote when i was sad, one of those nights i guess.

— The End —
