A Painting of Betrayal


In your departure, my pain unfurls, 
A heartbreak, how my tale swirls. 
Painted with sadness on the love I laid, 
A farewell in colors, you portrayed. 

You painted me in color of grey and blue, 
For I am a monster, but not entirely true. 
The pain of being cast as the villain, 
In a story that left my soul chillin'.

Yet deeper lies another pain, 
Born from society's judgments, plain. 
Various unkind opinions born, 
Judging me of things I have not done.

But in this pain, a new beginning takes root, 
Strength rising from all the dispute. 
For in your leaving, a chance to reclaim, 
The colors of self, to self-love, I proclaim. 

Let pain be a temporary art, 
A chapter of pain, not the whole book of heart. 
May healing wash away all conflicts & strife, 
And reveal with a newfound life.
