Fractured Trust

In the realm of friendship, where trust takes hold,

A bond once sacred, now tarnished and cold.

Betrayal's bitter sting, a knife to the heart,

Leaving wounds that ache, tearing souls apart.

Words once shared in whispers of trust,

Now twisted, manipulated, turned to dust.

Deception's shadow, a poison that seeps,

Shattering foundations, where loyalty sleeps.

The laughter fades, replaced by silence and doubt,

As the web of deceit spins its intricate route.

Promises broken, like fragile glass,

Leaving fragments of friendship, lost in the past.

But from betrayal's ashes, strength shall rise,

A phoenix of resilience, with newfound eyes.

For true friends endure, though trust may be scarred,

They rise above betrayal, their spirits unmarred.

In forgiveness lies healing, a chance to renew,

To rebuild the bridges once broken in two.

For friendship's worth, though tested and tried,

Can prevail through the storm, with love as its guide.
