Stolen Trust

by Baby Rainbow   Aug 8, 2012


I blame myself for trusting you
when the warnings were all there.
But I was just a desperate child
wanting someone to care.

I let myself believe you
thinking your love was real.
But in life, that's what happens
when we trust the things we feel.

I fell straight into your trap
sinking further down the hole.
You have no idea of
the things from me you stole.

I will never forgive you
for what you put me through.
But I will never forgive myself
for becoming so close to you.

    Very, very moving and sad. Love the second stanza especially.
    I feel the loss of trust you experienced through your words, and I am sorry.
    I am not always big on the usual patterned rhyming, but you do it beautifully. I've read a few of yours the last week, since I finally started writing again. And I will continue to visit your page. :)

    I have the feeling that I know what this piece is about, and the stolen trust. And what this person did.. It makes me angry, to know that there are people that are so inhuman, i'm not sure how to call them.. I don't want to sound like a recorded disc but I'm glad you wrote this and that you are letting it out.

    I like the vagueness of your poem here, how you don't go into straight detail about what this person did- all you know is that trust can go deep and greatly affect how you live your life. It's an awful feeling when such a pure thing is taken away. Great rhymes, neat short poem :)
