Trust

Why can't I trust anymore?
So many people have hurt me
millions of times
that when someone really
wants me to trust them
I can't
I hide myself
behind walls for protection
to save my heart from
anymore pain that will hurt it
I want to tell people
that I trust them
but how can I
when its so hard for me
I'm scared of placing
my trust in their hands
without knowing if they will
cherish it or abuse it
I want to tell them that
they can trust me and
I trust them
but I can't
I honestly don't know why
Someone, please
teach me how to trust again
tell me its okay to trust
someone once more
Show me how I can come out
from those walls that I've formed
that I somewhat use to protect me
I just want to give someone my
trust
