Trust

Accidental Poet



As friendships grow

The walls of security come down

As trust is earned

Mutual smiles are found

 

Not of physical touch

But more of a common bond

Between two or more

Confidence is won

 

For when a friendship can’t be trusted

Surely it becomes rusted

And now it’s busted

Right quickly then it’s ousted

 

Once trust is gained

Responsibility is yours

Mistreat it

You’ll take the exit door

 

But knowing

Someone’s got your back

Is confidence against

The trust that someone else lacks

 

Trust is a two-way door

It’ll work against or for you

If it works for only one

Then it doesn’t work for two

 

If I trust in you

And you trust in me

Then between us

Friendship we will see

 

But be careful

In who you trust

For there are those

Who thrive on rust

    'If it works for only one
    Then it doesn’t work for two

    If I trust in you
    And you trust in me
    Then between us
    Friendship we will see'..
    those simple truth's
    we *choose to ignore,
    what a great message
    thanks for sharing dear poet

      Without trust, what do we have Andy? I believe we're both very lucky to have and be friends. Thank you for the read and compliment. ; )
