Trust is such a funny thing

Trust is such a funny thing.

It can take years to build up, yet seconds to break.

It can be blind, or it can be hesitant.

No relationship is complete without it,

It makes every interaction easier,

Trust is such a funny thing.

Trust is such a funny thing.

Some people acquire it so easily, and others never get it at all.

It makes snap judgements, it makes rash decisions based on first impressions.

It can make or break connections,

It can create or destroy perfection,

Trust is such a funny thing.

It can be the missing link, the perfect key,

It can be ruined for one person because of a relationship long extinct.

Trust is such a funny thing.

I am a lover of animals, music and writing, although when I write the most is whenever I am feeling strong emotions.
