Betrayal

When many looked up to you

They believed in your abilities to lead

Then you betrayed their trust

Your own you cared not for

Rather you abused and manipulated

How would they admire you now?

From you what can they emulate?

When the elders have forsaken the values

Which they once stood for and believed in

Now the grey haired is daft

Worse than the youth in folly

Now age is subject to insult

The young now despise old age

All because you could not act your age

Rather they are now despicable

The juveniles from you have nothing to learn

All they think is your trickery

To them your golden life is mockery
