Again? Wow…

_(Bark. I think I’m gonna have a take with this person tomorrow because I’m too tired rn. Hope you have a great day!)_


Again!?

You shared

Something I trusted

You with to people

I

Do

Not

Trust?!

I forgave you!

I trusted you again,

And that’s saying

A

Lot

Because I have

Horrible

Trust issues!

This time it wasn’t a story

But a conversation.

I am non-confrontational,

But I think,

I think I’ll ...

Shattered Trust

I used to trust you

I really really did

I regret that now


You played with me

You used my trust against me

You used it to make me look like a fool


Not anymore

I used to trust you

But that was before


No longer will you make me look a fool

No longer will I trust you

No longer your _plaything_...

You Lied

Halved Ribbon.

(This is for my prompt ā€œhalved ribbonā€, and I’m redoing this prompt too)


We were bound

By the ribbon of life,

Not once unraveled,

Not trapped in strife,


The strip- silky, slipper red,

Tied our wrists in a bow,

Tight enough to bruise,

Deep in our skin, it was sewn,


Despite the digging pain,

Bound together, we happily stayed,

Though I failed to hear

The snip of your honed blade,


And the sound o...

Shattered Trust

Like a mirror

Broken to pieces

Trust is shattered

All hope ceases


Misplaced trust

Is disappointment

Trust is shattered

No quick ointment


Once so steady

Now unstable

Trust is shattered

It’s a fable


Who we trust

Makes all the difference

Trust is shattered

Only remnants


In the mirror

Broken to pieces

Trust is shattered

My face freezes


Misplaced trust

I’m disappointed

Trust is shattered

Self disj...

Deceitful Prophecy.

It was written out,

Painted in the stained glass,

The story of our upbringing,

The tale of our trust,


How I told you what l’ve hidden,

And you did the same,

Knowing you made me feel colorful,

Not once was there a cloudy day,


Our future was foretold,

Glittering from the sun,

Until it was shattered,

From a hammer in your hands.


What took days is now destroyed,

Hardworking, tired hands,

Now cut by...

Dangerous Charm

You promised that you’d

Hold me,

Cuddle me for hours,

Little did I know,

You were only there

For riches and for powers.


I knew of your past,

I knew it was rough,

I knew about all your

Lies and cons…


_Yet I still_

_Took you in_

_And made you mine…_


I never should’ve

Trusted you,

I should’ve known

You’d never change.


I don’t know what to make

Of the fact

That our love was fake.


A con artist,

...

My Dying Conviction

Trust can be a fickle thing,

But mine is unrelenting.

There will always be some part,

That believes you can be a good person.

I want to believe you are a good person.

But I don’t think I can.


You throw away my faith in you,

Thinking that I’ll always bring it back.

I loathe that you’re right.

But what good person does this?

Forces someone to jump through hoops,

Just to stay in their goo...

Take My Trust

ā€˜Trust me’

You said

ā€˜Help me’

You cried


I trusted you

Frankly, I was dumb

I helped you

Shattered trust is the sum


You didn’t trust me

I was in pain

You didn’t help me

You were covered in vain


So take me already

To the sky above

So I don’t have to see your face

I thought what we had was love


Stupid

So young

I didn’t what love was

And I couldnt have fun


Alone, I was

All stuck in myself

Or in my...

Her.

The one I had always looked up too.

She held my hand,

Yet always guided me in the wrong direction.

She made me attack the one

Who now I stand strongly beside.

Twisting my perception lie by lie,

She slowly became a carcass.

A reflection of what she had become.


ā€œAn attention seeking whore,ā€

Is what I would say

Yet, despite my sorrow and rage boiling in me

It seems nearly impossible to cuss her out...
