Trust

So, let someone in
Have faith in something
Someone
Lean on another once in a while
Feel free to call
My door is always open
 
But that one time
That one time I took your advice
See what happens?
I’ve said too much
There’s no way to take it all back
Oh how I’m wishing I could
 
But life is never so easy now, is it?
 
I trusted you!!!
My faith I gave to you
You took it and turned it over
Inspecting its worth
Someone said it was priceless
You viewed it contemptuously
 
Don’t give me your pity
Leave me be
 
Let me rise again
And trust no more
But your guile was so irresistible
I’ve sunken so low
There is now no light
No way up out of this pit
 
Pissed off at you I am
Screwed is how I feel
Betrayal!!!!
I want to shout in your face
Maybe inflict some pain
As symbols of mine
 
Alas I can’t
Like I said,
Your guile was irresistible
I could not resist
So I am here
Wishing it was all a dream
 
That you’d come back and say
I can trust you again.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.
