It's So Clear

Something inside me

Has broken I fear

I feel that it's shattered

To me, it's so clear

That trust is now gone

Never to return

For once that is broken

Once it's been spurned

It can't be rebuilt

It can't be reborn

All the misdeeds

Are no longer ignored

All of the times

That I forgave

Made not a difference

It couldn't save

Once belief is gone

Once trust has left

All the excuses

All the reasons so deft

Are no longer enough

They only mean naught

They can't make up for

Not doing what you ought

For you won't own up

To mistakes that you make

All the untruths told

The omissions that awake

The suspicions of others

The hurts caused by you

Responsibility not taken

Apologies that are due

So something inside me

Has broken, I fear

Trust in you is now gone

To me, it's so clear.
