    Hmmm...this is a very thought provoking right. Its point blank and comes and hits you straight in the face! Like it or not, here is what it is with my trust right now, it says. It resonates as well...perhaps this one-liner is for a friend who back-stabbed once? or a lover who two-timed? You never know...just makes the reader think and probably visualise this in the context of his or her own life's circumstances.

    This also reminds me of the Major Arcana Tarot card 'The Fool' who says, "Trust again, learn to trust yourself". I could feel that message ringing out loud as I saw this one-liner.

    Best of luck in the contest and in all you do!

    Ah trust... once someone has played with it, it can be lost easily, and take quite some while to find it again... I wish you the best of luck in the contest

    oh believe me One-Last, it's been used in the heat of an arguement before. I told one of my friends here on AP how it was said during the course of an arguement and now it's making the AP contest circuit! now that's poetic justice!

    a nice line to tell somebody you hate them...and oddly enough, one I might use someday. Thank you for entering, this was certainly...different. In a good way. And thank you for putting the quote in too. This sort of makes me laugh a little bit but also makes me want to cause trouble just because I look forward to saying to it someone.

    hey Doc...my poetry always has a ring of truth to it!

    you have to read the comments to your poem later on. some of this is just too funny. you related it to yourself, but everybody else has too. especially someone called Elfin here.

    it is funny Doc...it was actually a line I used during one of the arguements back at home, and now here it is, hitting the AP contest circuit. who would've thought, you know?

    Jo

    P.S.: If it ever wins even so much as HM, I'll have to let him know to refer to me as a "poetic" bitch!

    I don't know why it's doing that Life...I only changed to one line. no changes to anything else. I just re-typed the title in again, maybe some AP glitch...??? It's still appearing as "I'm Sorry, But..." from here, but I don't know how the replies are passing over...

    welcome anyway. by the way, it doesn't show, but have you changed the name of the poem, because the system msg that came showed: NoWayJo (im) replied to your comment on I, saying:
    can be done Life...no prob! already have the comma there so I'll just edit it to a single line across...and thank you!!!...... so, have you changed the name to 'I' the name as i see here in the poem doesn't seem changed!

    wowe!! this is lovely, and feeling sorry for you though! all the best for the contest, and, may be, you can turn this one into a one liner from two lines, by putting a comma, or a semi colon!

    well, it was actually written for a contest, the theme of it being a confession in 15-words-or-less, Gran. this actually was a sarcastic attempt at "confession." still didn't win though!

    Very profound, these two lines, yet they can be taken so humorously too - if you can't trust yourself, then...?

    This is not a metaphor, right JO? Just kidding! I love it!
    This says it all but what is fascinating is the juxtapostion of pain and sarcasam because it is not often that anyone feels the freedom to expose their lack of trust this bluntly. Great writing, as always! Zayra
