Shattered Words

Title: Shattered Words

In secrets whispered to the air,
A hidden tale of scorn laid bare,
Behind closed doors, a treacherous scene,
Where trust is torn, shattered by mean.

Words that once framed friendship’s bliss,
Now weaponized with a serpent’s hiss,
A hot mic captures the venom’s release,
Unveiling betrayal, a bitter crease.

Chris Christie, once a trusted voice,
Now reveling in choices unwise,
With words that cut like a sharpened knife,
He stokes the flames of strife.

Nikki Haley, grace personified,
A warrior with dignity implied,
Shrugging off the blows from an old friend,
Her resolve unbroken, she will transcend.

But behind the scenes, the truth unveiled,
A friendship revealed to be entailed,
In four blistering words, the mask slips,
Leaving wounds that reason can’t eclipse.

So let us remember the power of speech,
And choose our words with careful reach,
For hidden mics may capture the storm,
And friendships once strong, in ashes transform.
