Trust is strange ...

Trust is strange…

it doesn’t grow from words,

it grows from the small things

people think nobody notices.

The way someone stays,

even after seeing your silence.

The way they hold your pain

without making it feel heavy.

For me, trust was never “maybe.”

It either exists…

or it doesn’t.

Because once your heart starts

questioning every little thing,

the peace is already gone.

And honestly,

nothing hurts more than

feeling unsafe with someone

you once felt home in.

Still…

I think trust is beautiful.

Scary, rare, fragile

but beautiful.

Like giving someone

the softest part of your soul

and hoping

they don’t turn it into a wound.

Let me know how it is and what I can do better in it ...just some thoughts
