A Betrayal, Soap and a Plane ticket
May 6, 2019
Each pure moment of trust, tattered into into tears
Stains on the heart fade with a layer of airy smears
Bubbles block the pain of being so open to a now meaningless cause
The crime made its mark with merciless claws
You’re not the same so you have decided
To finally let go of what was holding you back
Throw away the ticket with your promise and return to lilac
The airy scent congratulates the choice as it removes the last bruises of betrayal
