Best Distrust Poems


Distrust
Take me into your arms
I don’t want more qualms

So near and so far away
To be close to you I pray

‘You can trust me’ – you say
‘Maybe I will’ – one day......

Why is there so much distrust,
Fueling hatred, malice and lust?

We're caught up in every scam's gust
Leaving many financially bust

Including telemarketers' thrusts
Continuously feeding disgust

We're riding social media's cusp
Allowing real friendships to rust

Causing us to constantly adjust
Leaving us completely nonplussed

Making too many tasks a must
Till we nigh...

Echoes of Distrust
You filled my life with emptiness
When You left me in my distress
all i needed was your company
but all you left me with was tragedy

You entered my life aright
but you left in my discomfort's daylight
How cruel and capricious of you of Girl!
You took away my every...

A Matter of Distrust
Possessing pure skepticism
allows me
to carry an air of longevity

Having to breathe in
false utterances,
the words of mendacious men
I could never trust

If you be at the opposite end
on the thought spectrum
of visible dust

Then persuade yourself
if you must

That everything is peachy keen;
because an oval echo,
from a yellow enamel...

Premium Member A Sincere Distrust of Figs
In every apple, an atom resides; 
in every Adam, an apple abides. 

So it goes and goes, apples 
toppling off tables in rhythmic waves, 

falling through slits, convincing themselves 
they are particles instead.

Whether in a pie or the depths 
of your eye, it remains a...

I Ran Away From Love In Distrust
I ran away from love in distrust
and decided not to live in guilt,
but without the felt desire
the days weren't lived to the fullest;
and the unsolved fears stayed with me
leaving the doubts
and uncertainties
a lover could deeply feel...
when all chances were available.

Who can blame me
for doing certain...

Distrust
I thought I knew you, I don't.

I thought I could trust you, I can't.

I thought you would never hurt me, you do.

I thought you cared, you don't.

I thought I could get over this, I can't....

On the Need To Distrust the New, Part I
There seems to be a trend these days,
an obsession with novelty,
and like most bad things of this age
it is traced back to the sixties,
at least the latest form of it,
for in truth, it’s always plagued us,
I’m talking about those who jump
on the newest and latest...

Distrust of Society
When will I learn not to trust anybody
and not change my kindness too quickly?
Will I turn my cheek
to the one who's in urgent need,
who trembles and who is weak?
Hunger makes all plead!

Help me, God...
being cruel is hard,
being kind is easy;
help me, God...
the beggar stretches his...

Fear and Distrust Are Dangerious
How can we have faith in Trump
and the possibility of his new VP
if he were to become President?
This is really bothering us about
fear and mistrust.
It is becoming a pure case of
politics between Democrats
and Republicans and females
and males.
Trump has gotten away with 
a lot of things...

Premium Member Fear

It is a secret
You’re afraid to reveal
Too much of your heart
You’re afraid, so you conceal
The real you, the real truth
The hues of hope and faith
The sweetness of such grace

It is a worry
You’re too aware of
A darkness that hurries
To dim your sparkle, to dissuade
Your kindness, your...

My broken glass vase’s broken melody
My glass heart is empty
It’s been cracked and filled and cracked and filled.
I know your eyes as I know mine to cry
You beautiful, cracked thing.

It’s been too many years to count and care
Love and memories will carelessly fall from your hair.

“I love you” I wish...

Premium Member Comments On Crooked Politicians
Empty promises waft effortlessly through the air
The vacuous bleating of self-important bloviators,
Who claim the best interests of the noble citizenry
Uppermost in their clever, plotting minds who dare

To seek approval from the greater masses at the polls,
While thinly disguising their not-so-quixotic intentions.
Such troublesome breaches in the...

The Pursuit of Happiness
There is a horrible hollow ache inside me,
That murky feeling of being loved ,
That love which keeps a section apart ;
Fills the void with sadness and betrayal.
That feeling captured & wrapped around with distrust & dishonesty ,
My eyes brimmed with tears of disbelief ,
A society...

Premium Member Assurity After Storms
Sea of searching tore hope without explanation 
Crucified crests cascaded, crazed static fall crashing
Thrown spontaneous needs, unclean situations 
Wayward waltz of flotsam incongruity, faith attacking

Tossed by tumult of quick duty drifters expected 
Wanton women sought whimsy single wave provided
Crudest crass antics satisfied, longevity rejected 
Your...
