Analysis of Trust Issues

Trust Issues
By Robert T. Davenport
In the depths of the heart, where scars reside,
Lies a battle fought, where trust has died,
A wounded soul, with walls built high,
Trust issues linger, refusing to comply.
Like a fragile glass, once shattered, broken,
Trust becomes elusive, a word left unspoken,
The wounds of betrayal, etched deep within,
Leaving a trail of doubt, where trust has been.
In the realm of connections, where bonds are formed,
Trust issues emerge, like a storm unadorned,
Fear takes hold, casting shadows of doubt,
Leaving hearts guarded, unable to let out.
But within this darkness, a flicker of light,
A chance to heal, to reclaim what's right,
For trust issues, though they may persist,
Can be mended, with love and persistence.
It starts with oneself, a journey within,
To heal the wounds, to let forgiveness begin,
To embrace vulnerability, despite the fear,
And slowly, trust's flame begins to appear.
It takes time, patience, and understanding,
To rebuild trust, like a delicate landing,
But with open hearts and honest communication,
Trust can be restored, a beautiful revelation.
For trust issues, though they may seem vast,
Can be overcome, with love that will last,
With empathy, compassion, and a willingness to grow,
Trust can flourish, like a river's gentle flow.
So, let us not be defined by our past,
But embrace the possibility, the love that can last,
For trust issues, though they may persist,
Can be transformed, into a love that truly exists.
