People and Trust

they say that people can be trusted
with everything you got
what they do not tell you is
that every shiny thing has
a tiny spot

when you see all shine
you are happy to your core
but soon as you see the dark
there is no need to explore
because everybody knows
that darkness is no good
you would prefer light over dark
even if light does not offer
any shelter and food

this darkness always prevail
when you are not around
its difficult to see as people hide
which is suppose to be bound

you can try to get rid of
your past mistakes
but you cannot hide from this darkness
as it takes new shapes

till you are in this world
you will face this time to time
just smile and pretend to care
while looking them in their eye.
