You Would Have Trusted Me Poem by Keith Anastase KAMOSSO

If I could snap my fingers and say I trust
Then this whole fight wouldn't be happening
This whole sorrow inside my heart wouldn't be felt
This agony wouldn't be recognizable
This love would mean everything

But here I stand by myself again
Looking through the window with tears in my eyes
Giving myself a good talking to
Living the life that I don't fit in
Smiling when I am crying inside

Where you are do you hear me when I cry
Do you see me when I crave for a stare?
That one look at your face that would take my breath away
Just a glimpse to what my heart called happiness
Do you feel my pain when you are alone?

Trust was all I wanted when I was down
You could have saved my life if you would have said:
"I trust you and it's all going to be ok my love"
But instead you run away from my sight
And leave my whole world out of the light

You would have saved me I am sure you know
You would have saved the day that both of our hearts craved for
You would have touched that hear that needed a tender touch
You would have reached out to save my soul
But mostly, you would have trusted me
