doubt

Believing in you came naturally.
Everything urged me to judge you favorably.
You seemed too good to be true.
Maybe that should have been a clue...

I surrendered my soul.
You became my all.
You made me strong.
Or am I wrong...

I believed in you.
Now what should I do?
As I dry my eyes,
I realize I created these lies...

It was easy to believe in you,
That’s all I really wanted to do.
Now to avoid my own demise,
I need to doubt my own lies...

__________

Sometimes it’s easier to believe in someone or something than to accept that you really shouldn't.

  3. Well my darling... you've just wrote one of my real battles. Or may I say "our" as I read the comments by?...
    It was just amazing reading you and thinking... "yeah! That's what I did. That's why something/someone happened..."
    Thank you...

  4. I think we all want to believe that fairy tale. We want the happy ending and the story.

  5. We sometimes create happiness where its not, I think its a safety mechanism in our minds/hearts. the only problem is when it goes pear-shaped we dont know how to C the truth... My best advice to all is to listen to close friends/family, they care about you and will tell you the truth even if you believe otherwise.

  6. wow! you don't believe how much i can realate to this. completely agree with izzie. it was as if i was reading something that's in my head. i guess we sometimes choose to believe in someone or something this way probably cos we have a little bit of hope somewhere deep down, that what we believe in so much, cannot be wrong, or that one day it'll all be ok. but i guess in most cases, we don't realize that we just end up fooling ourselves!!

    lovely post! hugs!

  9. Time... believe in its power to heal, and that it's the thread that keeps us together between the now and then. That is my hope.

  10. I for one know first hand how this feels as well as when the belief shows you what a fool you have been. Now that is a bitter pill to swallow.
