You Can Trust Me

For some unknown reason we do not trust.
We would never divulge a precious secret.
People don’t connect enough to those they love.
Reactions make us so scared.
Our biggest fear is being emotionally hurt.
We would prefer death than think that people truly care.

Why won’t people care?
What will it take for us to again trust?
What is so painful about being hurt?
What can be so terrible that we must keep it a secret?
What is it that makes us so scared?
Why won’t we open up to those we love?

People are here because of love.
People are here because they care.
There is no reason to be so scared.
It is ok to trust.
It isn’t worth the stress to keep a secret.
Someone always ends up getting hurt.

Is it worth it to personally hurt?
Are you so alone that you can’t love?
Won’t you share your darkest secret?
Why do you think others will not care?
What is the worst that can happen if you trust?
Why does the potential reveal make you even more scared?

Pain of their shock makes you scared.
The fear of rejection makes you cringe with hurt.
Past experience warns you to never more trust.
You have yet to taste the sweetness of true love.
You assume that nobody will ever truly care.
To the grave you feel you must go with this despicable secret.

But how do you know it is even still a secret?
Who told you that there is any reason to be scared?
What makes you so insecure to think that I won’t care?
When were you so irreversibly hurt?
Who do you think could show more love?
Will you please give me the chance to earn your trust?

Deep inside is a secret that makes you worried someone will end up making you hurt.
People are so scared to ever open up to people who show them constant love.
We know people care but apparently not enough to earn this highest level of trust.
