Trust of a man

Fascinating how we trust a stranger to carry our burden in the hope of turning that stranger into our closest. The lengths we venture into, hoping to turn somebody on our side. We present the vulnerability of our being, and even the slightest touch will hurt any emotion we buried in the past.

Yet we feel confident to bring the secrets of a long-buried past to strangers. All in the hope of making that stranger believe in us and have faith in our emotions. But we all know how everything will end. If the secret is made of lies and deceit, its betrayal will meet with the same virtues.

Whether we are drowning in the ocean of trust, a lingering bird of suspicion always hovers over our heads. Eventually, the sea of faith's blue water turns red with betrayal. But we have seen it before and know what to do here; at least, we hope we know.
