The Vengeful Kissed Frog

And thus Prince Hamlet
In suicidal reflect,
Makes his own gauntlet
And by distrust and suspect
Must a murderer detect.

~It's Out There~

Green colored field 
A flower without the sun 
Wilts from distrust 
now washed away 
by the man storm

No one

I got lost
I looked back 
trying to find you
in the dust
you weren't there 
no one was
I grew up in fear
and distrust.

An Elgyn

Shielded, his logic affects distrust - chill resolve
Mine scatters like dust, dissolves
His lust for my mind absolves
Allows this love to evolve.

Bound

though many times
I feel the ribbons
Of Pain and distrust
flowing through My
bruised life ~
I am, by my Infinate 
Love, forever to you 
Bound!


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...
Form: Couplet

Stranger

Scarred
gambler
dangerous
rambling around
looking for a special someone to trust.

But even if he finds the right person
will he know her
or distrust
and stay
scarred

The Fall

Desire drips from your mouth, and dark shadows of distrust, resentment.
My heart screams a fiery orange flame
As weakness becomes me,
Passion drives me, and I plummet once more.

Negotiate

Coarse and contrived
Sterilized pride
Deaden

Absent and aloof
Formalized spoof
Leaden

Surly and wry
Hostilities nigh
Redden

Distrust and dissent 
Predestined event
Armageddon
Form: Epigram

Simply Broken

There's no simple fix
For the true broken heart 
You always distrust them
Right from the start 
Feeling the pressure 
To prove you are more
Than smiles and emojis
You're loves' to the core.
Form: Rhyme

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.

Remorse

When love turn's
To remorse
And distrust course
Threw my vein's
It poisons' my
Inhibitions'
And my hearrt
Doth' began to sang
Of-
The acrimony of pain
And shame
To be delivered once 
Again

Premium Member Corrosive Faith

The force of desire
stalks the very boundary 
of my confidence.

In simple wanting
do I trespass on taboo?
How will I then learn?

Even in fantasy 
my corrosive self-distrust
twists erotic vision.
Form: Senryu

Betrayal

Betrayal
sprays red and distrust
all over what was once
unblemished and pure.

The stains 
will never go away,
and while forgiveness
must prevail to salvage sanity—

still—
my innards whimper
and rage.

Selfish Ignorance

Countless experienced
The horrors of war
Communism
World hunger
Undeniable
Historical data.
Then thousands
Witnessed his miracles
Heard the message
Yet distrust the Son
Of God.
Were the times lacking 
DVD’s?

Premium Member The Wheel of Doubt

I drive me crazy
- there's no hiding or help
for dark self distrust.

Frightening whispers
are like a levied tax of
doubt about my choices.

Anticipations
dulled on anxieties rough shore
- best to keep them deep.
Form: Senryu

arabic

why do people fear
the arabic language?
the dense, complicated
sweet, athletic tounge language
that many people around the world
speak in
pray in 
love in 
what is there to
hate
fear
distrust
i don't understand.

Distrust

When I am alone with you-

I am trapped in the cycle of being tricked and betrayed. 

When I am surrounded by others-

I am trapped in the cycle of fighting back, numbly. 

My only strength right now-

Is distrust.

Pale

The distrust inflames me
A tainted image 
An angel fallen into the flames
How could he?
He stained my fantasy
Stabbed my trust
Maimed my dreams
And now all i have are ashes of what could have been
A dream killed too soon.

Dark Sunglasses

the dishonest mind, 
like dark sunglasses, 

even on a sunny day,
projects its own tint, 

paints its own distrust 
on everyone around,

seeing you and me   
as mere creatures 

of its own false image 
and fake likeness

Love Burnt Ashes

Sincere I forget, distrust I hurt 
a grudge of distraction. Mere I 
tend to resent, lust observe 
must it happen. Insist despair 
I exist, such blood nerves 
in scratches. Dare I admit 
I’m scared, in dust & 
Love Burnt Ashes.

defiant
     disdain
haughty
    self-reliance
envelops,
   then
     devours..
the proud:
taunts
provokes
    distrust,
if
never
unlearnt
becomes
    marooned
on
   an
     island
       of
           one..

The Infernal Serpent
coiled ’round the soul of man
strangles the love and understanding
imbued by the Creator 
supplanting it with hatred and distrust.

When She Turns

Silence so dense it can be felt.
Shatter! Sudden devastation
Sprawled across a cement floor.
Sound reverberating seemingly forever.
Serene peace severed by
Selfish intention.

That's how it feels.
