A Fragile Thing We Call Trust by Melissa Paiz!
Five letters that make up one word, One word that we use to build a bond.
A bond that becomes a part of us as we create connections with the people we love and care for,
Five letters that construct the foundation - the base, of our various relationships
one word... trust. the very idea of trust can make us honest and vulnerable

but it can also set us up and allow someone to damage us,
trust is the first quality, the first link we all seek when we rely on other people who say
they`ve got our back. when we put our hearts, our dreams and ourselves on the line
because we belive everyone who says they`ve got us, will never hurt us
but the very person we would never hurt is secretly holding a knife
Ready to stab us in the back.

in moments such as those we start to wonder
who we can depend on and who we can`t we become cautious and fearful
that we`re giving our trust away to someone who will eventually do us wrong.
five letters that make up one word. one word that we use to build a bond.
people we want to stay in our lives, to stay with us until the day we die.
Family who we cherish.Friends who we adore. Lovers who we treasure.
and people who walk in and out of our door.

Angelic faces that can easily hide rotten hearts.
we turn a blind eye so we won`t be alone.
we deny,deny,deny. but once the truth comes out and a traitor is revealed
our trust in people shatters. our open minds are concealed.
and so we become weary of who we allow passed our wall because trust is so fragile.
Daily Conversations can turn to missed calls.
