Unfaithful

Bewildered, I walk this barren place
A place my soul can't feel
Too much damage to ever turn back
A place my soul can't heal

Forgotten dreams adorn my path
With seas of liquid pain
Broken promises, my only friend
The scars are all that remain

Mistakes I've made are my shadows
They follow where ever I go
A regretful heart refusing to beat
But shouting, "I told you so"

Memories becoming a stain in my mind
Illusions now taking their place
Reprobate, not knowing right from wrong
Hope, overcome by disgrace

Unfaithful souls walk in this place
A place I've learned to hate
My mind plays back the things I've done
For me it's ever too late

I don't see many poems on unfaithfulness. This poem's words reflect the emotional turmoil from both perspectives. It's difficult to impossible to heal from broken trust. Your poem has wisdom and truth, without being maudlin. Great poem!
