Trust Issues (Part 1)

Talking to  someone
about who you are
can be a very healthy clear thing,

but so many times
the level of trust
that it would first take,
trust of ourselves
to be honest and real,

and of another person
to actually listen
without his or her
judging us
for our choices or thinking,

is precluded
by our inability
to trust in the first place

and so it seems impossible
to learn to trust someone
in the first place

to tell them
in the second place
about our inability
to trust and what
our trust issues are about
in the first place.
