Trust No Poem by Nicholas Smith

Trust No
One cause she left like I wasn't right
All the days & nights

I tried to amaze her despite
Insecurities, non beliefs, she would speak to me about not being pretty

Not seeing my sight in her eyes
'Lies baby lies. You're beautiful as can be. Better than any of Gods seas.
Gorgeous than the birds and bees.'

Then she would say..

'Lies baby lies. How dare you mislead? Look! I am not these beautiful things you proclaim of me.'

She twists the face in anguish..

'Excuse me my dear but I must
Intrude on your rant. Stamp my foot down upon these until they are rubbish; no more! '

I then set to explore on her shores of blue
Deep depression and saddened expressions

Listening to her stories of heartbreak
My head began to shake at

Foolish little boys who had a diamond but
Destroyed it; now I must fix the damage done

No matter how long it takes
Even the burning out of the sun

For her to see that she is the one
But even after such actions are completed

Emani left my heart depleted
After this I was never the same

Although my brain was still much intact
The heart was detached; slain dastardly in pain

Although the act was quite gruesome
I picked up my heart, walked away limping

Grateful for another start
Foolish or courageous?

To begin again at a game that I did not win
Giving my all to one who clearly did not commend

My love, with such hurt who can one trust?
No one.
