Never Again

Something is between us
Dark and ugly
Lies, deceit and trickery

Trust betrayed
Broken promise
A hole soul deep

Cold and empty
Unrecognized, raw, red
Hurt and anger

Waiting for acceptance
Understanding
Non-denial

Excuses and forgiveness
Due to circumstances
Drawn from within

Carve this into your heart, dear one,
In my blood and pain
Never again
