When trust is gone, will love remain? Or would we both just go insane? Would we ask of what went wrong? Or simply find we don’t belong It starts as lust that we call love Then complex things we rise above Then respect we hope will last Then the memories of the past Then one wanders off to find Something more to fill their mind Then the lust, the love, respect Turns the trust into neglect So even though some roots grow deep They need some love for life to keep For in a storm the roots may give And down might fall the way you live Talk and talk and make things right For lonely are too many nights And hard and cold a bed can be When love of once you never see |

I truly think that where there is no trust there is no love. This is well said Rick... I enjoy reading you. Huga~Nancy I wait now at the lake or walking by the bay |

What a wonderfully piece this is, Rick! Inspired writes are a real treat, when the reader can FEEL the thoughts bouncing between two different pieces. |

The hardest thing to do is leaving someone you love because you dont trust them. Even though there may be love there, it will eventually lead to unhappiness. You put it perfectly. Nice work |

I read Earth Angel 1st and this just fits right along with it and it is very good.. and yes where there is no trust is no love because that is what love starts from in my opinion which is trust.. thanks for sharing htis.. Poetry can get you very far |
