betrayal within

you tell me you can not trust me anymore, 

your supposed to be family, 

but i feel oh so betrayed, 

you say after what i did is so unreal, 

you cut me down, 

and tore me apart, 

as my sadness within i am hurt, 

your supposed to be family, 

but it's a dark betrayal between us, 

i had no other choice but to cut you out of my life, 

you aren't any better than me, 

you have done way more wrong than me, 

i mess up one time and you basically call me a horrible person, 

oh how the deep seas rise, 

as the darkness lurks within, 

family is supposed to be there for you, 

and not bring you down, 

yet i mess up one time, 

and you bring me down, 

 but i can always get back up again, 

i'm not letting depression take over once again, 

going to keep living my life and moving on, 

what did i do that was so wrong? 

you hurt me deep down inside, 

we use to be so close now we're dearly departed apart, 

my heart can't take no more sadness, 

because i'm happy within side, 

my family is complete, 

for i found the love of my life, 

can't you just be happy for me?

Write 'em off! You know the truth. And so does the Almighty. Sad as parting can be, it is often for the best. To be the best human we can be will often require moving beyond the people and things we treasure. There will be sadness. We will mourn. But we will get stronger. Well written, my friend.

This is such a sad poem..The thing is to always remember that this is now, but as you get older you will change..you will grow.
Depression doesn't have to ruin your life...
Writing out your feeling on paper and into a poem can be so helpful.
Save all your poems..One day maybe 60 years from now you will look back and be surprised.. I saved all my poems and right now I am going through them. I have submitted some from when I was in my early 20's..my life was so different then..Lisa
