Mistrust Issues
Mistrust is like a thorn Fiercing deep into the skull It's like adding salt to the burn Excruciating beyond pain appall Akin to disloyalty and treachery Mistrust is misgiving not careful Towards a downtrodden bribery Misgiving against success is painful This is crisis in attitude and morality Without following rule and its sanctity....

Mistrust
How can I trust you again? You took my love for granted You thought you saw something better And ran off when the chance came You’re vile lies Slip through your soft lips Your smile tries to bring me peace But the words you say torment me Is it right for me To give you another chance Is it wrong...

In foggy winter of mistrust
In foggy winter of mistrust, To warm up heart in hope of sun, To dry my nagging doubts to dust, Scorch misunderstandings in June, I waited with hope till undone. And yet, not else I could but hope For my long chilling heart to thaw, Cajole it, give it a long rope, Wait for a warmer tomorrow, Or just to my thankless fate bow. _____________________________...

Redirected
With the powers that be having spent $5 trillion dollars since 1940 on developing and maintaining its nuclear arsenal, would only redirect those funds to help heal humanity instead of trying to destroy it in the fastest way. There is also a Joint Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicle with a price tag of $41.6 Billion dollars...

Nation of Mistrust
As the leaders begin their power stride A communion of separate opinions is established Through sacrificial disgust, the sense of mistrust blossoms Weariness of our commander, promotes our nationwide slander Blazing off the political grease which clogs our arteries of need Through the desire of greed, we all are victims of the lies Misguided by the flapping flag Once unison can be...

Sonnet 57 'How Deep the Stings That Make Men Mistrust Love'
How deep the stings that make men mistrust Love, And women fly from comforts that Love brings, And deeper is the poison in poisoned rings That longing hearts refuse the thinking of. There is no other station that can wound As deeply, or as surely, as Love stabs No other hook grabs deeply as Love grabs And no lute, more than Love,...

No Good Deed
Try to do good Smile. Be nice When asked for a favor Don't have to think twice I 'm charitable, generous Believe that kindness is key Trust good karma is cyclical It'll come back to me But disillusion and pain Is all I get in return Lies and backstabbing Somehow tables get turned I'm portrayed as a villain That I am to blame For all your misfortune It's part of...

Premium Member Mama Said
The screaming, the yelling, the kicking, the clawing. All because he did not get his own way. He did yesterday and all was fine. This is the first day of kindergarten. He cannot be the ruler here The hollering, the shrieking, the smacking, the ridiculousness. High drama today because his mother says he does not have to listen to us. We...

As Well As Rage We Should Mistrust Love Too
Did anyone believe that rage expressed Could benefit the agent without harm Did anyone read Freud and then digest? Feelings need the heat of blacksmith’s fires Held inside until they find their form An image worthy of our true desire As well as rage, we should mistrust love too Be backward in expression till more’s known Or...
