I want to trust you but my heart is so afraid,
You say you have changed,
But how can I be sure,
I want to believe you,
But I don’t want to have to relive,
The heartache of the past.
Painful memories serves as a reminder,
Of the risks I have taken,
And the promises that have been broken.
I want to stay afloat,
Not suffocating in this love,
Drowning in my tears,
Knowing that your loyalty is not here.
Lovely poem. I must say that this speaks to my most recent (mis)adventure in trusting the untrustworthy.
Thanks for reading and for your comment. We all make mistakes in life the good thing is that we are able to learn from them.
