Haiku hope 39 – Trust!

Welcome everyone to another teeny tiny haiku. This is part of my series of creative distractions within the COPE campaign, and a list of your own distraction ideas can be found on the stress hacks page of this website.

I’ve been struggling with trust issues recently, it’s something I hope to write about in more detail soon, and it’s causing problems with my support network and in my personal life.

As someone reminded me recently, I have to trust people again or nothing will change, but when my trust is given and not looked after, it chips away at my ability to do it all again in the future.

I wrote a haiku about my lack of trust in the world and I’m posting it here for you.

**********

Trust!

Who can I believe,
when those I trust lied again?
Can I believe this?

**********

Remember if you need some distractions from stress then there are more jokes on my Hold Humour page, as well as haikus on Haiku Hope, awful poems on Crap Poems and odd language in Weird Words. I also have a page dedicated to stress hacks and other ideas to try if you need a distraction within the COPE campaign section of this website.

Thanks for visiting.
