I feel that your heart was broken in many pieces by someone that was once special to you. You exspressed this very well in your words. Leslie

Powerful message. I think that most
people are betrayed and trust is
constantly broken. It's a sad commentary.

I've always thought if the word "Love" was removed from the English language, we should use the word "trust."
If you can't say the one, don't say the other.
Incredible, beautiful poetry.

Once trust is broken, it can never believe again, forgiveness or not... I love this poem, Reindeer... speaks volumes.... stay strong...

I often have wondered why God allowed humans to think. We do seem to get into quite a lot of trouble thinking of ways to deceive and ways to defend that deceit. Boggles the mind. Loved your words.

..yes, my friend, it is difficult to believe someone that has lied..BUT to love is to forgive..and when one forgives one forgets..
..hmm..I have much to think about..thankyou for this wise piece...well done..it goes into my library...

Excellent write and really true ...
Did he break the trust ...
Something to think of ...
So sad reading this ...

Love is something so different ...
Making the world sometimes in tear shed ....
So sad and really sad ....
Heart looking for love ...

But never being understood ....
This is indeed so sweet and wonderful ...
Love sometime never understood ...
Heart sometimes never understood ...
Goodness sometimes never understood ...

Love still fights and continues to fight ....
Excellent write ...
