You said you would always love me
So I believed it
You said I would always be the ONLY one
So I believed it
You said you would never hurt me
So I believed it
You said you would never leave me
So I believed it

Putting all my trust in you
Wondering if all you said was true
Hoping, praying, that it was true

Finding it wasn't true
I become so blue
Putting my trust in you
Knowing it wasn't true
Sometimes we put our trust in the wrong things or people.  We need to look to the one who created us and remember HE is the ONLY one that we can fully put our trust in.

Hmm... a nice poem but I personally don't agree with the afterthought.  
Still I liked the varition in stanza sizes progressively, it made this really have a good appearance and it read through uniquely.

You never really know who you can trust, and sometimes you cant trust anyone at all...I like this, but towards the end it lost its rythym and was hard to follow.  Maybe you could clear that up, and I think the whole thing would read alot better.

Ahh, yeah I know how dealing with trust is. But sometimes you can't help but feel like someone can be trusted with everything...And the afterthought got me ta thinkin. Great job.

I liked the poem, but the afterthought....naaaa....i believe you can trust more people than just one.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Trust is something hard to put into others.  In my opinion(just an opinion) you can trust people, but it takes me a long time to develop that trust.  Give it time, it may happen!

My tears roll right down my cheeks, but they all soak into my pillow.  I feel kinda sorry for it...

Trusting someone can sometimes be the hardest thing that one has to do.  I know what you're talking about here.. I had a trusting issue too for a long time.  It's hard to overcome, but can be done.
Nice poem.
