Trust

I thought I could Trust him

I thought he could make the right decision on his own

Trust is a scary thing

Never assume just because you Trust

I found out the hard way

A foggy blue seemed to take over his eyes

I knew he couldn’t hear me

He was going to do what he wanted to do

But I Trusted

Trust is a treacherous thing

It is the greatest gift you could give someone

The most fragile

The easiest to take back

Maybe I was wrong

Maybe I should have gone with him

But still, I Trusted

Had I not Trusted,

There would be no betrayal

There would be no tears

There would have been no death

Anger doesn’t care about Trust

Anger caused the betrayal

Anger caused the death, the tears

But without Trust, the anger could have been destroyed

Because of Trust, he killed a man

Because of Trust, the anger took over

All this pain because I Trusted the wrong person

Because I thought that Trust was more important

If Trust is the cause of betrayal,

Which is the greater evil?
