"Betrayal begins with trust" - Quote by Phish Here's the story of a married couple... They had the world on a string, The blueprint to erect A lasting foundation of togetherness. They forged a covenant... To comfortably repose forever On the bed of dreams The love they shared was As solid as granite, as was Their unwavering faith in one another. Their relationship flourished. It was firmly rooted to the ground Like an Egyptian pyramid. A sinewy bond that could never be Severed, or so it seemed. At the first sign of trouble, A third party waiting in the wings Wiggles herself through a crack Between the two lovers; Two becomes a crowd, Betrayal gradually erodes trust. A once steadfast union Crumbles like Jenga blocks. Their love withers on the vine; Infidelity, the coup de grace.
