Shattered Trust

Cross my heart and hope to die 

I hope to live through all the lies

We the people, conceived to deceive 

Let's face the odds

If Satan was an angel, 

What is God?

I'll be frank, I don't believe in trust

But nowadays I don't believe in much 

Leaning on the precipice of hope

Reliance is a thing I've never known 

I cherished you..

You were mine

I'm running but I can't catch up with time

I'm shattered 

I've been trampled on the ground

I think I'd be best off just staying down

Let's face the odds
If Satan was an angel,

"I think I'd be best off just staying down" - that last lines says so much. Sometimes it does seem easier to hide after a heart is broken or after one is hurt. You have so much talent! It is wonderful to read your poetry again. Thank you for the RR.
