who do you trust?
Lives are bartered between those who say they will, and don’t;
between those who say they will, and always do.
Lives are bartered between those thought true to their word,
yet betray without thought or feeling;
between those thought true to their word,
and are always so without fail.
Lives are bartered between one who
has no concept of friendship at all;
between one whose friendship is golden,
and who cherishes it as being there forever.
Lives are bartered between those whose selfish actions
break faith, erase all integrity;
between those whose actions build lasting faith and love.
Betrayal lurks between promises loaded with danger.
So easily found are those whose words
are spoken with thoughtless intentions…
with selfish dimensions…
with fearful jealousy…
with narcissistic duplicity.
So easily found are those devoid of feelings…
are those filled with hatred…
are those who must compete…
are those who inflict pain.
They are unworthy
of anything and everything.
They are liars, intentionally so.
They are not worthy of even seconds
of one’s time or thought.
When discovered, stop!
Speak…
