take it back

it's a peculiar feeling
no longer being
able to confide
in the person
who held
your trust for
such a long time.

it's as if
running again
when you're
fresh off crutches,
fumbling over those
first few steps,
clumsy and
uncoordinated.

but you will
take back
that trust
and place it
again in
yourself and
your
judgments.

With all relationships comes with it... give and take.... compromise and trust.....some of the ingredients to make a relationship a solid union hoping this is it and it's going to last for ever..... then unexpectedly cracks start to appear and suddenly this relationship that was once solid is broken in two . In order to fix this broken trust both sides have to ready to want the trust back.

You have penned wise words in this lovely poem... :)
