Trust

Trust is a tricky thing,
A thing that takes time.
You can't just by it
With a measly dime.

My trust and my time
Are precious things.
Unless you're an angel
Ready to spread your wings.

My secrets,
Too hard to handle.
I don't tell anyone
Or try to start a scandal.

No one understands,
No one cares.
And if they did,
They'd be in for some scares.

Everyone says I'm strong,
And hard, and cold.
But really that's just
A protective fold.

I don't want hurt,
I don't trust many.
I shouldn't admit this
But I don't trust any.

I'm hated at school.
Left in the dust.
I do blame myself,
For not learning to trust.
