Petty Distrust

Petty Distrust

A Poem by -Scribe in Style-
"

Its the small things.. You say it is a white lie, but who is it benefiting?

"
You say you trust me and I am sure you think you do, 
In your mind its part of what you mean when you say I love you...
Then I wonder why your actions and answers defer from this 
And it hurts when you do not even realize it. 

It went on and on as though it was nothing, 
And each time it bothered me a little more, 
And I did tell you.. 
I did, I mentioned it over and over.. 
But you paid no attention to me or my fear.. 
You ignored the point I made and took it lightly
Each day it built up ever so slightly, 
Creating this bond of petty intense distrust
But still its just a sorry, 
I wonder if it meant anything.. 

I told you the last time, "But you don't trust me, do you?"
And you claimed you did in your reply. 
Ever ready with reason and excuses with a denial, 
Yet here I am facing once again the same trial. 

Its been a while so I know you quite well, 
When this happens, its code red, the same drill, over again...
Today I'd had enough, this is the end, 
Too many bends and I'm not going to be the one to mend.
You need to know I will not stand for such a lie, 
Because each time it makes me cry...

My emotions burst out, and what I cannot express verbally I do so in poetry... The words just flow when I write it out...

Your poetry is so connecting it almost reminds me of how disconnected I've become to realize people feel so deeply . Trust is earned not given this is a good poem that reminds me of that. If only I would listen.

I love how your write. Using the language with great skill.
"Then I wonder why your actions and answers defer from this
And it hurts when you do not even realize it. "
The above lines stood out. If we cannot trust someone. There is no place to go except goodbye. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
