How Do You Trust
How do you trust
when the trust has been broken
how do you love
when you’re left out in the open
Who do you choose
when you’ve only felt used
What do you do
when no people come through
They say go again..
what so I can relive all that?
I was loyal, they could depend,
but it never comes back,
Their self esteem was so low
I was the one they attacked
And I was so confident,
outnumbered left flat
I know it was poor judgment
too allow them around
and that’s my mistake
until the next one is found
It’s not that I blame them,
It’s shock, I feel drowned
others peoples insecurities
somehow pulled me down
They get bitter they get nasty
take malignant chances
in a world that upsets them
their treatment enhances
And to think I wanted the best
so everyone advances
now I feel broken
I just cannot stands this
I feel like I’m nothing
there’s no reset button
I’m hoping for something
I’m not sure it’s coming
The day I stop writing
will be the day I come through
I’m sick of this fighting
but what else can I do
Take strength that I’m breathing
say I’ve still got potential
Use it to motivate and believe in
a world that rewards
