Trust

Something that can't be bought

It has to be earned

For some it's easily given

For others they'll never give it away

~

Trust once lost

May possibly never be reobtained

Trust is a high price commodity

That no price tag can match

~

It's earned in camaraderie

By showing who you really are

Or at least who you convince the world you are

Though they might not be one and the same

~

Snakes in the grass

Love to gain trust

And abuse it to no end while blaming their victims

Wanting to cry in wanton despair when the trust is finally lost

~

Do not trust too easily

But do learn how to trust occasionally

Or your life will be spent in misery

Sometimes a helping hand is just that, a helping hand

~

To trust is such an endearing and beautiful thing. Though it is also quite terrifying to do. I hope you enjoyed this rambling. If you did then please heart, subscribe, and feel free to leave a tip.
