TRUST I

                        An Elusive concept
                         or a concrete fact
                        An emotion that confuses
                         leaves and come back
                        Unquestionable trust
                         does it exist?
                        Unconditional trust
                         just a myth?
                        If life is not smooth
                         trust will elude.
                        Once it is broken
                         can it be repaired?
                        How does one trust another
                         beyond compare?
                        Can it be done?
                         Is it fair?
                        Trust is an issue
                         complex and fleeting.
                        It comes but does not stay
                        It is but runs away
                        When it is gone
                         one is incomplete
                        When it is there
                         life is beyond compare
                        To take such a risk
                         do I dare?
                        Or hide behind walls
                         this is unfair
                        Instinct says trust it's allright
                        History has taught a different tune
                        How can one trust on one point
                         but not all
                        Are we really that fragile?
                         afraid of it all?
                        Can it be true
                         that time heals all wounds?
                        And if so
                         will it heal this one too?
