TRUST

Trust was everything.

I pity you.  You must be so sad.
I don't think you meant for it to go like this.
You nurtured and poisoned
All in the same perfumed breath.

Duality and Double minded
Unstable in all you put your heart into.
A crazy carnival bridge I rode that spun me
Sky to ground, and shifted perspective.

Another fly woke up today in your web.
The stories and scene might have changed.
But it's just new history being written
Where old heroes have fallen.

But I always kept the strength to walk away.
You didn't mean to do this, you never do
But it's just the unfortunate way
That the casualties fall, during the endgame.

You might have broken free, broken down
Rained every last piece of regret on me
Fallen apart at every place where your bones hold together
And I could have gathered you up and healed you.

You lie altogether too easily.
