Unforgiving City

I was betrayed in a fit of rage
Never expected that from a friend
I thought I could count on their loyalty
Until the very bitter end

I was dishonored and ridiculed
Forced to face my true personality
Discover who were my real friends
And find my way back to reality

I was lost in the unforgiving city
Wet and needing of sleep
Trying to process what happened
Cold, trembling and weak
