My heart was surrendered to you
It’s tragic the things you would do
Your lies stabbed right through it
My friends said they knew it
You’ve rendered this heart, residue
You’re no more the person I knew
My image of you was untrue
You just trampled my heart
And then tore it apart
If God had just given me two

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.

Your rhyming pattern flows really well here! I love a good rhyming poem that doesn't feel forced.
Great job, as always!!
You definitely have to test a relationship. Trust is definitely important, it’s just not in words but action
