Betrayal hides in the unheard transmission
produced by, and with those, close to us.
In person, they only lie of their compassion,
providing us with their disguised mistrust.

We mistrust ourselves by trusting enemies!
But instead of admitting our stubborn follies,
we label them saboteurs of our reputation.
They're not the reason for our incarceration!
