Failed Trust

Friendship trusts without asking,

Believing in the other's good.

How I wish I could take back

The doubts- would that I could!  



I've destroyed the very thing

That I thought was always there.

Why did I lose inner sight

And fall prey to questing care?



I deserve this loneliness;

I merit bleak aftermath.

I failed myself, failed my friend.

I deserve to shoulder wrath.



Let me have learned the lesson

For this pathway has been rough.

Friendship trusts without asking;

Loving trust should be enough.
