Trust is so easy to break
So easy to quake
To cherish and destroy in the same breath
Leaving almost no remains left
So hard to build strong
Then you blink and it's gone
There was no warning, no indication
Things just started breaking, decaying, with no manipulation

It falls apart so fast
Like the breaking of glass
You slip
Their trust dips
Leaving a trail of confusion and hurt
Feeling like you're worth less than dirt
Wishing you could turn back time
And see all the signs
That the trust was breaking
And your friendship was disintegrating

Now you're stuck with the pain
A horrible feeling you gain
I wish I could apologize
Take back the tears I put in her eyes
And wipe away the distrust of today
But I know that's impossible, there's no way
I can't fix this mess I made
I will regret it till my dying day

A stupid child's mistake
Is the reason I lay awake
Hoping for a way to escape
The reality of this nightmarish fate
I broke the trust of someone I care about
Now no matter how much I shout I can't stop his doubt
A part of me knew I should have let it be
But that part was overruled by my immaturity

The moral of the story is:
Think before you speak
Hold on to what you want to keep
Only forgive till you know you'll get burnt
Or face someone you called a friend turnt
