How

by GoddessOfWings   Mar 31, 2005


How are you to trust someone,
when been hurt so many times,
or gradually start to try and heal,
when you're never really fine.
The people who i really loved,
who i thought had cared for me,
trapped me in their spiteful lies,
and caused me misery.

How are you to welcome,
a new friend into your life,
when you won't be able to trust them,
or know if it's really right.
When i realize someone's betrayed me,
it hurts so much inside,
a bit of me is torn away,
and left in the darkness to die.

How are you to remember,
what it was like to trust and care,
when so many 'friends' have used you,
then ignored you like thin air.
Tell me what i did then,
what i did to deserve what I've got,
do you think I'm a toy to play with?
well grow up, because I'm not.

How can you stop crying,
when tears are all that remain,
making it hard to try and stand,
and block out all of the pain.
I've got to try my hardest,
to help myself grow strong,
i will find some way to continue,
to finally, just move on.

    This was an excellent poem. I can really relate to this one, especially since I had my first fight with a friend ever...and now we are no longer friends. The pain and confusion is still fresh in my mind. And everyone around me is telling me to forget about it. It's only been a week, they need to give me time. This poem really speaks to what I am feeling at the moment. Thanks for writing it.

    One of my favorite poems I've read on this site...finally a poem that explains why I now have such horrible trust issues and a hard time becoming close with friends, great job.
