Trusting

I would like to say that I have walls up.
That I don't let anyone in.
I would like to say that I keep everyone at a distance.
But the truth?
I trust too much.
I open myself full heartedly to others.
I let them in and show them my heart.
Despite being broken, and betrayed,
I still let anyone in, including the people who broke and betrayed me.
Yes, I have my masks but that doesn't keep people out.
I am too trusting.
I believe in the best of people, I look for the best, but I feel like I get the worst more often.
