Trust

To those few friends I trust, thank you for these years

as you have never been the reason for any of these tears,

these tears I cry because I thought, I wished I could

trust in others, who I thought were friends, if only they would

have not gotten selfish and turned their backs on me

to benefit only themselves, I could have turned out to be

what people treasure the most, a valued and true friend,

their sister of sorts 'til the very end.

Now they've ruined my trust yet again, and again I know

that true friends are rare, they are hard to find and to hold,

I guess it's my fault for assuming once again

that others are like me, not holding any evil plan,

not wanting anything but to live, love, and laugh, I wish I can

trust in those around me every day, to be able to talk and be free,

and not worry about what comes around that's more important than me.

A trustworthy friend, a friend who cares, shouldn't ever be given up on.

They've shattered my trust, one final chance they had, so now I'm gone.
