I felt so betrayed,
I know they love me,
but it will never be the same.

Hateful looks; with eyes like knives,
stabbing into my heart.
The whispered lies,
tearing me apart.

The people I thought knew me,
looked past all logic,
and gave me accusing glares,
that forever stare into my mind,

and the words that echo in my head,
ever since that day,
my voice has been dead.
They took it from me,
before I had the chance to speak,
and condemned me for crimes I did not commit.

How insulting,
how could they believe those things about me?
Couldn't they see,
that it was just another false story?

It broke my heart,
and I stood alone,
...when I needed them most.

I know they love me,
and I love them,
but that memory; is always in the back of my head,
and it will never be the same.
