Acceptance
Acceptance of me, acceptance from you,
I can rarely accept what's so blatantly true.
I try and I try, then I try a little more,
Though my heart and my past will leave me unsure.
To trust is a goal I can never achieve,
An investment that I would fail to keep.
Yet now and again I'll find a good soul,
Who'll warm my heart with stories untold.
But that day will come when the tables will turn,
I'll be left with a choice; to trust or be alone.
