Betrayal
She runs through the night, hooded, masked
A false impression of kindness and joy
She is a traitor, disguised as a friend
Gleeful that all have fallen for her ploy.
Her eyes gleam coldly in malice
uncaring, unfeeling for the pain she has caused
She laughs, a harsh sound that echoes throughout
Filling even the bravest hearts with doubt.
Suddenly no one is trusted, everyone is apart
Whispering in the shadows, cowering in the dark.
She is gone but she has left a trail of misery behind Scarred in their memories, burned in their minds.
She creeps silently through the dark -
then slips away before dawn.
