You Need Trust Poem by Ray Hansell

I think the time is finally here
For you and I to say goodbye
We thought that we could make it
We gave love a valiant try

But the problem that we had
Had to do with trust
It took the love we had
Then turned it into rust

When we were not with each other
Your mind was filled with doubt
Love cannot exist or survive this way
That's not what loves all about

You have to trust the person
That you claim to love
You have to always remember
Trust are what relationships are made of

But you have no trust in me
And you haven't for a while
I can't go pretending
To keep wearing this fake smile

You may feel the same way to
I'll tell you, that's all right
But when I was not with you
I was home every night

But I don't want to get into that
The ole tit for tat
I know we're both too old
To want to go through with that

So let's do the sensible thing
Say goodbye, wish each other well
We both know life holds something better
Then living each day in hell
