The Betrayal

Very deceptive is the chameleon

Green snake in grass hardly noticed

A fox never stops being cunning

That’s an understatement about my friend

With you, I don’t need an antagonist

Never knew you could be mischievous

I was fair to you, open and loose

But you treated me as were a fool

Why did you betray my trust?

Must pretence be your first resort?

And first cousin of the father of lies

All because of a lass

I told you everything, kept nothing

Alas! You turned hunting

Looking at me, you smiled

Never thought it was feigned

You murdered my confidence

My reliance you shattered

Even my expectations, you crushed

Shall I still believe you?

We laughed, talked about many things

Now, shall it not be some things?

We played, wine and dine together

Not knowing this won’t be forever
