Betrayal Poems
However, it is also true that a person can only betray you if you trust them. Do not blame yourself if such an event happens to you, but definitely learn from the incident.
It can be hard when you’re going through a hard time and you thought those who would be with you through thick and thin, end up turning on you to add more to your pain.
Here are a few Betrayal Poems to help you through this tough phase.
1. You Think
You think you’re so good.
Think you’re so perfect in everything.
You think you can control my mood.
Please, you must be joking.I gave you all my heart.
I believed in everything you would say.
I trusted you from the start,
and everything went your way.I guess I made my biggest mistake
when I became loyal to you.
You’re one of those friends who is fake
in everything you say and do.I thought your kindness would last.
But now I feel so used.
Because when I think of the past,
I thought you’d never give my heart a bruise.Why did I ever rely on a word you said?
What did I ever do to deserve this pain?
I trusted you, but you hurt me instead,
And I don’t know if I could believe you again.
– Poem by Melissa Rose B. Bulaong
2. I’m Lost
That you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone.
But it’s true.
I’m lost without you.
I said I was fine, but I lied,
Honestly, I’m broken inside.
There are so many things I’d like to undo,
But all I can think about is how much I miss you.
Why does it feel like you don’t mind the distance from me?
I’m dying inside, why don’t you see?
I’d like to forget this feeling of sadness,
But it’s never been as bad as this.
I’ll just keep hoping to talk to you soon.
It shouldn’t matter though, after all, we’re still under the same moon.
– Poem by Sarah Gray

3. You Have Lied To Everyone
Three months ago you said that you would never lie.
A week ago we left each other, and yet still you try
To mend the tear. You lied to him, you lied to me.
And only now, I can see
That you never meant those things you said.
So therefore you lied to me.The day we met was one year ago.
I left, and only now I’m glad I had to go.
My mother said you cannot be believed.
I can’t believe for three months you had me deceived.
You say you’re sorry, but it’s too late.
Your awful lies and actions have paved your fate.I wouldn’t be surprised if 20 years from now,
You’d be put in jail, and you’re asking, “How?”
And if I could, I’d walk right in
And give the answer, “It’s the penalty of your sin.”
You’d look up at me, with a sad and pitiful look.
But I wouldn’t pay you one bit of attention,
You sneaky LYING crook.You’ve lied to everyone, me and her.
You even lied to yourself, a price of the lure
And if you had the chance, would you take that back?
And even though you think you’ve won,
You have lied to everyone.
– Poem by Jenna
4. Deceit & Deception & Trust
Lies and deceit, it’s all around me
Lies and deceptions, two bad surroundingsI see no point, I see no end
Those are your enemies, who you think are friends.You see and hear it, find it hard to believe
They don’t want any good, but only to deceiveYou don’t know who to trust, everyone’s a target
The things they’ll do so hard to forgetDeceit and deception, over and over
The chances of good friend, like four leaf cloversThey’ll think you don’t know or won’t find out
But surely you do so without a doubtThe thing that’s done determines your fate
makes choices for the best, better soon than lateLies spread like a diseased infection
Life’s just full of deceit and deception
– Poem by Angeline Richards

5. Friend Shows Their True Colors
The blood was shed
It will never be the same
Feel the intruding lead
That hangs my head in painThe drainage not on my hands
But flows down my back
It was only in the sands
Where you planned your attackExecuted without flaws
With no issue at hand
You dug deep with your claws
Into a faceless landYour face full of lies
When you greet me at that place
I see through your disguise
And reject your embraceThe wound you try to heal
Is now a gaping maw
Your words can never conceal
The true colors I saw
– Poem by Bryan P. Mix
6. Will You Be There
When I’m crying and you see tears running down my face,
will you be there?
When I’m in my deepest fear,
will you be there?
When I face my darkest hour,
will you be there?
Will you help when I’m in trouble?
Will you watch as I weep?
I have one other question…
when you have your head hanging down,
will it be me that you seek?
I know it will be.
So when I hate myself and want to throw in the bag,
will you be there with open arms?
– Poem by Andee
7. Stab My Back
But you stab my back
You tell me you’re “depressed”
And then you go and cry on my shoulder
When I need your help, you turn away
The blood drips down into a puddle
You spit in my blood and walk away
I sit there bleeding
Until there’s no more blood
And I sit and suffer
Finally you kill me
– Poem by Amanda Caruso

8. Betrayal
If a man says half himself in the light, adroit
Way a tune shakes into equilibrium,
Or approximates to a note that never comes:Says half himself in the way two pencil-lines
Flow to each other and softly separate,
In the resolute way plane lifts and leaps from plane:Who knows what intimacies our eyes may shout,
What evident secrets daily foreheads flaunt,
What panes of glass conceal our beating hearts?
– Poem by Arthur Seymour John Tessimond
9. Betrayal Of The Heart
The silence was deafening;
Nothing but hte whispers of the night’s wind.Her eyes reflected the silver of the moon,
Whom was gimacing down upon her.Her body lyed down in the crimson she called her own;
A pool of blood not deserved to be spilt.Her poor soul looks not once at her cold body,
But at the man who’s own hand pulled the trigger.He smiles and takes a step away,
But not until the tears came down his face to stop him.Looking back at the life he has taken,
He falls to now stained ground.
– Poem by Leah Rochelle
