Everyone has them.
Don't lie and say you have my back,
and turn around to make a childish attack.
My feelings won't change due to what is said.
If so, then my heart would already be dead.

I hurt just like others do, this I want known,
but if dishonesty and betrayal come, would rather be alone.
My heart's always open to genuine friends,
and if I'm wrong, I'll make amends.

I would never deliberately hurt anyone,
for in doing so, friendship's gone.
You may wonder why I'm writing this piece.
It's because lack of trust is a disease.
