Ps: Not a personal write.

I am sure many can identify with it, whether its male or female

Ruined by your lies
Now she will question
All those that come after you 
When will she trust herself again? 

How will she sift through the truth and lies? 
How will she differentiate between right and wrong?  

She has been cut down
Her judgment stifled 

You apologized - 
Yet she will for months 
Or maybe even years still wonder 

Why? 

Perhaps even blame herself
Naïve she was for believing your every word ---

But guess what? 

She is going to try again 
And with every step 
Strive and reclaim 
Her trust and her instinct again
