Trust is a lie..

Friends are the ones worth living for,
Was what i had always heard and read.
But i remained skeptical, for trust is a lie,
So i paced on life’s path, yet cautiously tread.

The paths were intimidating, and the roads difficult
A few good ones’ support made it seem easy.
Their helping hands and friendly jibes,
Made even a hot, sultry day seem breezy.

On my way though, i felt a shooting pain
I froze as it drove right through my spine.
But it was my friends who came to my rescue
Their healing touch followed, and everything seemed fine.

I wondered if this was what friendship meant,
The unconditional love when we fall.
I wondered if these were angels God had sent,
I wondered why then do we have adversaries at all?

Each moment of my journey felt gratifying,
The imminent success seemed sweeter than a gale’s song.
Unaware of the greys that existed in this world,
The pain struck again, and this time it was strong.
But this time no one budged, nobody moved,
That’s when i knew something, somewhere had gone wrong.
I had failed to notice the pretense all along.

They pointed and laughed, sniggered and joked,
As i stumbled a little, and eventually fell on my track.
And just before the light faded away, I saw one of them
Pull out the knife they’d wedged inside my back.

PS a bit amateurish,but i did try. and the ideas were mostly inspired from someone else,mixed them with mine.comments please!
