Trifextra: Week Fifty-Five
For this weekend’s challenge Trifecta asked us to include some hyperbole in our piece. It doesn’t have to be the whole piece, but it needs to be in there, and they are looking for 33 words, as usual.
And moron that I am,I thought it’s going to be a cake walk.After penning my disappointing nth piece,I just fell down in an exhausted heap.Been picking up all the pieces for the last century & here I am,with my submission(hope Trifecta is still going strong) 😛

ESTRANGED
Betrayal made her die a hundred deaths,
She ripped his heart to shreds
Trust lay bleeding,love gone cold,
Broken promises,truths untold.
Tears flowed to put Niagara to shame
Estranged,yet playing the blame game.

They should give you the win since you’ve been picking up the pieces for an entire CENTURY 🙂

“Betrayal made her die a hundred deaths” *and* “tears flowed to put Niagara to shame”… Shakespeare is sooo green with envy!!

Barooooooo! … that said, great use of hyperbole! 🙂 I had the same thought about the intro as kz – I thought that *was* your entry for a moment
Lol Dawn,thank you for your fun comment-I feel these comments are the best rewards:-)
