You were my hero,and I wanted to follow in your foot steps.
In good or bad times, you were always there by my side.
You were my hero I would dream about, from time to time.
I trusted in you, as you trusted in me.
You were my hero, until you lied to me.
The hurt and disgust I felt in me,
was worse than a bullet coming through me.
You had been my hero.
Now I wanted to forget, but somehow I can't.
My feelings for you are strong, and have sunken deep into my heart.
My love for you is like the universe.
And even though you lied to me, you are still my hero.
And I shall never forget anything of you.

The author's comments:
A very good friend of mine lied to me, so I decided to put it in a poem. She was a really good friend of mine, and I forgave her. I hope that if people read this, they will understand that even if someone hurt them, that you should remember the good times. Don't completely forget them.

Betrayal leaves a deep scar within the heart. its crazy how the people you should be able to trust and love, are the ones who betray you first!

The raw feelings of betrayal are evident in this well written poem.  When people betray us it leaves a long deep mark.  I have a feeling this won't be the last poem from sumer44!
