Trust

A piece from the heart, about the most special and intimate of relationships

I thought I could trust you, 

I thought you knew,

The guidelines of our relationship,

The guidelines that we grew,

I thought you were fair that you honoured my care,

I thought you were love and warmth,

honest and true,

comfort come calling,

with or without blue,

I gave you my life,

I gave you my stealth,

In return,

In my heart,

You have become,

My empty part.

Your poem is a vivid reminder of those times when I was in an intimate relationship & my trust was destroyed. Now I can't trust like that at all. But I'm not bitter, either. You've nailed all the ways we trust & how it's an all-consuming endeavor, using strong, relatable details that evoke feelings in your readers (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

"Trust"
chrisbe,
It is interesting and at the same time beautiful how the human heart can change and grow. We hope for something in another. Wishing don't make it so. Love can be really blind and so full of hope. Love takes time; where have we heard that before?
All a person can do is try. To love at all is wonderful and to have that opportunity is wonderful. '
"I thought you were fair, that you honored my care,
I thought you were love and warmth,
honest and true,
comfort come calling,
with or without blue,
I gave you my life,"
Lovely poem
Blessings,
