I once trusted,
But time has broken trust,
It’s strange how things like this come about,
When you lose one thing that makes you happy,
You realize you lose it all.
Trust is a special thing,
When you trust someone after so much pain,
Then the trusted, you’re feelings they have slain,
Now you wonder if you can trust once more,
But sometimes you need to stop and think and slam the door.

I lost some one I looked up to, some one I could talk to, one of the only people I had left. This is the result.
