A Broken Trust by Ryan I lie awake while time slowly marches on, Thinking of what we had but now is gone. So many thoughts that have come and past, I think of the emotions that refused to last. The love I craved still rides at my side, It covers my world, for there is nowhere to hide. My love, my trust, my soul, I gave to her, Life would change, of that I was too sure. Now, three a.m. visits my stale thoughts, Reminds me of both love and time now lost. Radio plays the songs that we loved to hear, My only thoughts are to hold her near. Alas, this time in regret has been in vain, I’ve spent many an hour hidden in this pain. Tomorrow will come, like a thousand before, To heal my trust, so poisoned and sore.
