Disappointments, I know,
are as normal as the air we inhale.
Just daily components of life
when interacting with strangers
and fake acquaintances alike.

You know, it’s just to show,
for some trust is a demoralized detail.
Behind your back, an evil drive
of gaining profit and rapture
of friendship, hounesty on strike.

Interact they say, if you want to grow,
without connections you will fail.
Hidden in a smile, a back-stabbing knife
that’s revealed after the capture
of your goodness, sudden thumbs down of dislike.
