How can you love if you don’t trust?Where is the love in selfish pride?How must one prove the love they feel,When one will only feel they’ve lied?How to ‘believe’ in what’s unseen?How can you trust spoken half-truths?How can you change your ways, from long gone days,Seeds planted in your youth?How do you know if love …
