Why Can'T You Trust Anyone? Why? Poem by Gold Trybes

What do you say in times like this
What do you believe now
Who is there to trust
Who is there to look up to
I sought for so much
And gave so much in return
I gave my heart
I gave my love
I gave myself
I gave everything
But what did I find out?
Months have since passed
Until that rude awakening
That I got only yesterday
I thought I gave you my trust
I thought I gave you all I had
I thought I was open enough
But pray, why did you do this to me
You said you weren't ready
You said it'd take you two years
You said education was more important
Foolish as I was, I understood
Believed everything you said
Little did I know
How can I come to grips with your lies
When I believed every word you uttered
How can I come to grips
To think that you could ever lie to me
How can I come to grips
To think that you could ever deceive me
I was open with you
The best I could
People doubted you
But I stood in for you
People challenged me
Why I trusted you so much
I laughed at them
Said that if only they knew who you were
I was cork sure what I was saying
I couldn't believe any other thing
Because of what I thought I knew about you
Pray, how could you do this to me
How could you break that trust
How could you break that bond
How could you betray my trust
You lied to me
You lied to me
You lied to me…No!
How could you. How could you lie to me
How could you take me for a fool
How could you take me on this folly ride
How could I have been so unsuspecting
How could I have played along with you
In innocence and in trust
Pray, how could I
Yesterday, I heard that news
That broke and shattered me
All the time and love I gave you
All in the bid to marry you someday
All, you threw to the dogs
Chose another man
Only less than a year
How could you
Why were you never honest with me
Why were you never bold to tell me
So I could deal with the pains and move on
Why lie to me?
Why? why? why lie to me?
Am so deeply hurt
How much more of me am I to give
Am I that easy
Am I that cheap
Am I that the one that everyone takes for granted
Why must people ride rough shod over me
Why should I always give my all
Only to be let down, almost always
Why is it that a plain main
Never wins anymore?
Why is it that it's the good ones
That carry last?
Why is it that pain and misery is all I have known
In relationships?
Why is it that the wrong ones have been my company
In love?
Why is it that I have chosen so wrongly
Despite my heart of love
Oh today, yet again am so broken
Because you lied to me
Am so broken because again
Am taken for a ride
Same route, same heartaches
I was through this I thought
I was through this only two years ago
Pray, why again?
Pray why? Why?
Am so tired
So sucked out
Don't even know who to trust anymore
Don't know who is real
Don't know what's behind those eyes
Don't know whats behind that frame
So much deceit
So much betrayal
Am so fed up
Pray, am so fed up…
