Betrayed

Knowing your being betrayed may be worse than not knowing and finding out later. Debatable.

I saw you coming-

you were right in front of me.

Clutching that dagger- 

parading it by.

You didn't hide it,

conceal it from view.

Rather, let me watch,

while it went right through.

The dagger did not wound me.

No - that was you.

Well written piece of work, last stanza is really solid!
Thanks for sharing and b-blessed!

Betrayed now or later has the same outcome but different effects on us in timely manners or not. Maybe knowing now can stop the bleeding further before it is too late. Not sure though...Bravo..
