There will always remain the question if this is worth saving when we are assaulted by broken trust. It hurts a great deal and can't easily go away. You've mentioned good points: Lack of sleep, despair...
Time will tell but sometimes time goes on forever.
You've penned a good poem here, Chris.

Trust, when lost. Hard to be earn again dear Chris.
"Once wounds inflicted cause such pain
which festers worse by night it seems,
disturbing sleep, invading dreams."
The above lines are true. I believe some people never tell the truth. Thank you for sharing your powerful words and thoughts.

Dannnnngggggggggggg. Coming from someone with trust issues- this definitely hits home with me. There’s a song by “NF” called “if you want love”- and at one point the song says, “if you want love, you’re gonna have to learn how to change. If you want trust, you’re gonna have to give some away... why didn’t anyone tell me” And your poem reminded me so much of that song 🤔🙂🙌🏼

Certainly trust can become an issue if relationships have ended because trust has been broken. Sadly it's likely to spill over into future relationships too. Thank you so much for your thoughts.
A complicated question set in a flowing rhyming poem. Trust is like a cliff face. eroded slowly or subject to fracture and a devastating collapse.

trust between two people is sacred, and once it is broken there is no magic glue that can ever repair it without it being weakened by cracks...

Good morning Chris from a dull and windy West Yorkshire .
My dear Chris, such despair I sense in these words. Broken trust is so truly difficult if not impossible to mend. You’ve conveyed the angst and the questions beautifully in this elegant poem. How much we forget or mend also depends on how vital the person or relationship is to us. Appreciated very much !

powerful and true...I have found in all relationships, once trust is broken the first time, it never really finds itself regained...there is always doubt and it destroys the relationship...
