I once walked the path of loyalty with a gun loaded with trust and a confidence-studded vest on. But I got shot twice; the bullets ripping through my chest like a hot knife through butter and puncturing my heart. I staggered but a blade of betrayal went through my heart and shattered my already fragile heart causing me to stop.
I didn't die; I got an empty suitcase, a broom and a packer from a second-hand store for a cheap price and swept up the shattered pieces of heart, packed them into the suitcase and went on my way;
But I didn't continue on the path of loyalty.
For that path now held my agony and pain because as I looked back after shielding my partner from the bullets I found a blade in her hands dripping with my blood and a face of barely concealed contempt and scorn, content with herself for ending me.
Now, I walk the path of loneliness as my heart refuses to believe what my eyes showed it and chose to only play her song.
