Preface: This poem follows a vulnerable boy who placed his trust in the girl he loved. But when the moment came, she betrayed him — provoking two of his closest confidants to turn against him. In shock and dismay, though he could have fought back, he chose to remain silent, realizing that love was gone.
I heard your words and saw the view you hold,
A logic sharp, but strangely cold.
You struck the match to start the blaze,
And drew two others to the craze.
You felt content when three unite,
To blame me for all your plight.
I watched in shock your eyes ignite,
A cruel joy to lead the fight.
Behind the grace, a hidden shade,
To join the club against me made.
As three against one stood aligned,
I knew I had no one behind.
It seemed like you argued to win,
Forgetting the insight you usually bring.
You know the struggles I carry inside,
To you alone, my truest truths I confide.
Yet you chose to speak in a stranger’s tone,
As if all my burdens were suddenly unknown.
I could have answered with an equal chill,
But chose to keep my feelings within.
Because others watched, I held my tongue,
To save your dignity, I left my version unsung.
Now silence sits where words should be,
For what I feel, you cannot see.
I will keep my thoughts inside my heart,
since the one I knew has chosen to depart.
Though you may feel no sorrow for my plight,
I pity you for losing your virtue into the fading light.
The kind soul that I once knew so well,
has vanished where dark shadows dwell.
Anyway, I thank you for heeding my request,
and hope you find someone for every quest.
May your days be filled with joy and cheer,
With happiness drawing ever near.
