Poem I wrote

 .

.

SQUANDERED - STEP ONE



When should he give up?


Raise his white flag in surrender


When should he admit defeat?


His best efforts have utterly failed


His good intentions were all in vain


The silence when he asks for answers


Is deafening


The veil of self-deception has been lifted


From eyes full of pain and confusion 


His substance squandered


Betrayed by a Judas kiss


Abandoned by the stranger in the mirror


He waits, for death or rebirth


Standing at the fork in the road
