Betrayed

Easy going
Sorrow stayed
These hands of mine
Unrecognized
So much they have unmade

Wishes leaving
Happy fade
Diseased and blind
These can’t be mine
These words now so dismayed

Slow releasing
Tread and wade
Beneath the brine
I can’t resign
Nor swim to shores surveyed

Days decreasing
Gloom has grayed
I can’t decide
Your blood or mine?
Have both us I betrayed?
