betrayal is
a nasty situation
to be living through
i'd rather climb
a rugged #mountain
than be treated unfairly & abused

betrayal is
a nasty situation
to be living through
i'd rather climb
a rugged #mountain
than be treated unfairly & abused
ever feel the need to scream
blocking out
someone's inappropriate noise
she did but let it slide
to hide the hurt the pain the shame
instead finding a quieter way
to tame the frustration within
to rest upon a tranquil #mountain top
& calling it a win
