It is awful when friends turn against each other, sometimes for no apparent reason. It's happened to me in the past and has left me crushed. A well written poem, Carol. The emotion comes through really well. I enjoyed reading it.

Great job with your story poem! It shows how easily anyone could be misled by a "shadow" that seemed to be comforting and kind. At certain times, people are just more vulnerable and sociopaths know how to strike. Best wishes in the contest!

This is a very well written poem, and I enjoyed listening to it. The only problem I have with it is that the background is just a wee bit too close to your color and it makes it very difficult for people with my sight to be able to read it. Maybe if you went the back and got the Gainesboro color for the background it would work better. Patricia.

A well rhymed poem Carol and I enjoyed the sentiment as we were lulled into a false sense of security with the warmth of this person, only to find out that they abuse, and with this betrayal they become our foe, not our loving friend. A fine poem for the contest, love Dolly x

What an excellent entry in this contest Carol, yes, it can either be the Lord who comes close, or, if we can't tell the difference, it could well be the evil one, Satan, whom scripture warns can come as an angel of light. Smooth lines, a feel for rhyming, rhythmic poetry Carol, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

Thank you, Roy. I wasn't sure this met the requirements but I gave it a shot. It takes me longer to write a poem than two chapters of my novel. Ugh!
Smiles, Carol

Wow, well done, it's the other way around for me,
Comment from Iza Deleanu
Wow, such a profound poem;"You led me when my steps would stray,
Dried my tears and cleared the way.
No praise you sought, no light you claimed,
Still, in the shadows, you remained.' with an unexpected twist. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

Thanks, Iza...It takes me longer t write a poem than it does to write two chapters in my novel. Exhausting. Appreciate the review.
Smiles, Carol
Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
An excellent entry for the Betrayal Poetry Contest. Well, if this isn't a top contender I will be shocked. This was perfect for the category. The poem was very well written. Enjoyed immensely.

I can write two chapters in a story for as long as it takes me to write a poem...nerve wracking of course. Thanks for liking my efforts. I won't hold my breath.
Smiles, Carol

Betrayal is a horrible emotion and difficult to recover from. We put our trust and love in somebody who didn't deserve it. This contest entry does a wonderful job describing it. Good luck with the contest.

Thanks, Barbara. I wasn't sure that it was what they were looking for or not. I don't know too much about poetry.
Thanks for reading.
Smiles, Carol
