MEMORY
Song is "Memory" by Barbra Streisand, read the poem while the song loads then come back and enjoy the picture as you listen to the song.
Betrayal
Sometimes
the pain is unreal
Like a wasps sting
to the heart
Not a violent thrust
But a dull deep
lingering
slow torturing
Pain of betrayal
Not the hurt
of a lover's quarrel
Or the searing
agony
of
knowing
a lover
has
gone
No
this is this
slow- bludgeoning
of the sensibilities
Like a fat
meat hammer
pressed
firmly
on
the
heart
The pain
humiliation
betrayal
of trust
When
your
lover
asks
another-
for advice
An ex-lover
a casual friend
seemingly
When
they
ask
about
that
precious
coexistence
Behind your back
in deception
Seek
answers
where
no
good
is
given
Seek
answers
behind
your
back
And
all
the time
you are aware
And drawn
into
the deception
You find out
And it is
so
so
painful
The pain
of
betrayal

Note: To me this represents the confusion and struggle in any kind of conflict....:) and the assurance that "Time"and "Faith" heals all wounds..
