My Word
I’ve given my promise
Do you want me to break it
I’ve given my word
yet you won’t take it
I am not one to lie
If what is told to me in confidentially
I will not stand by
given to this world of fake normality
You do not trust
It was never given to you
Give me your trust
I will prove it to you
Each link in a chain of secrets I hold around my neck
Never to be removed in this life or the next.
I GIVE YOU MY WORD!







And I believe you. A person is only as good as their word, as they say.
Thank you, Dragon-Fire
Trust is a hard thing to give these days. When someone gets trust they have to be special.
Wonderful ink.
I agree with you. Thank you, Nick DC
This read like song lyrics to me.
Powerful and sharp beat drove it along. It had a message about love and trust.
I felt it.

Thank you. I am happy that you felt this
It’s interesting, each persons view regarding trust and how they intend to prove they are trustworthy. How does one go about doing such a thing? There are a myriad of ways. How do we know which way will be the one that works? It could be an exhausting life long quest.
It always makes me wonder why a person says they will prove themselves. Is it because the other person requires it or because it’s now required of the person saying such a thing?
Trust is one of those things that’s almost impossible to regain once it’s broken.
Thought provoking piece, hence my rambling.
I enjoyed this post.
Thank you and I enjoyed your rambling.
How can one not take your word/s when there is so much conviction and honesty reflected in them? Very nice poem, Fia!
Thank you, Hana;)) <3
