If I Can't Trust You 10.10.09

If there was something I had to say
Something I wanted to do
Would you simply look away
Or do what you wanted to?

Why can't I find that one friend
Someone who wouldn't hurt me
Why is there no one to defend
The request for privacy

I want to find someone who I can trust
That one person I can say anything to
When I say keep quiet, they know they must
Do what I had asked them to do

If I can't trust you, then who else is there
Who can I lean on when I'm feeling sad
What I would give for someone to care
Someone who would help me when I feel bad

I cry silently in the dark, hiding my tears
I wanted someone I could believe in
A friend who would quell all my fears
Someone I knew I could confide within

I know its a lot to ask for some, but for me
I just want a friend who will always be there
Someone who I know I can will set me free
And show that they will always care

If I can't trust anyone to be that one friend
To be open, and honest about what I say
Then I know there are none on who I can depend
So I will hide how I feel and I will walk away.

Author notes

I don't feel like I have anyone I can talk to. I feel completely alone at times, and right now I don't think I can trust anyone to keep anything to themselves. But I guess that's life, right?

Tell me, what did you think?

    It's a terrible feeling but maybe writing it out helps. I do like the poem as it does contain pure honesty and the rhyme was good too.
    Hope you feel better soon.

      Yeah

      The feeling of being alone with no one to talk to or to listen to you when you need it the most is really hard sometimes. I never really knew that problem because I'm more reclusive and write, so this is relatively new for me.
