Blindsided By Betrayal
Funny how I trusted you.
Funny how I believed you.
Let me tell you,
It's not so funny now.
No, it's not so funny now.
I trusted you.
You weren't supposed to hurt me,
You weren't supposed to lie to me.
I trusted you.
Funny how I played right in to your hand.
Funny how all I wanted was your touch.
Let me tell you,
It's not so funny now.
No, it's not so funny now.
Let me tell you this,
Your words hurt the worst.
My faith in you is gone.
You left me riddled with holes
And now the blood has begun,
Begun to run.

it almost sounded like a song to me, with the "no it's not so funny now" repetition. it reminded me of Cat's in the Cradle: "you know we'll have a good time then..." I also love to play with repetition; i use it in my poem "a lonely rain" - if you want to check it out, the URL is TeenInk.com/raw/Poetry/article/91407/A-Lonely-Rain/.
thanks, and i hope you find someone better than whoever you were writing this poem to.
