Faded Trust I used to think that trust was a given Caring was a must Then I woke up to the world we live in Friendships are formed on false perceptions Angels turn into misconceptions Promises are worth less than dirt Feelings often hurt With the truth in hand I would like to thank you For being kind For wanting to know my mind For supporting me In these dark and lonely times In a world where "friendships" Blow away like dust I would like to offer you My helping hand My caring heart My faded trust I hope you accept these In hope that we are, True Friends This poem was actually written for two very special people in my life. They helped me and wanted to listen to me when the world was dark and nobody wanted to know my darkness. I thought I had an angel ("friend") that would help me through all my pain. But she fled and left me alone. That just added to the pain. But then I discovered these two relatively new people who wanted to heal me and worry for me. They were true friends. |

I hope they are true friends, for your sake. I know all to well the pain you've suffered and you've described it wonderfully. Welcome to Passions! The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition. |

Welcome to passions. Your poem strikes a good point. People just dont care as much about freindship and promises as they used to. Great poem. Lucidity is the answer to all problems |

This is a very beautiful but sad poem. The points you make are too true. The world is a very harsh place at times. Poetry makes it bearable. |

There is nothing better in this world than a true friend.  |
