Trust, the rarest gift of souls- How can I wrap it once again? The paper taped and stretched too thin, Full of tears and revealing holes... You can't regift this twice, you see? Trust once earned, abused, declines The novelty that stood, resigns, Distrust alone now hinders me. But what first caused this change in me? What once was lost to be regifted - Privilege earned so easily lifted - And defines the devil - what could it be? The lastly words that Caesar spoke (That William wrote so elegantly) Now stabs my mind consequently- Betrayal and distrust are now evoked. Betrayal which started as a lie To hide and bury a wrongful act Broke the very soulful pact- The rarest gift now left awry!

Betrayal
Trust, the rarest gift of souls- How can I wrap it once again? The paper taped and stretched too thin, Full of tears and revealing holes... You can't regift this twice, you see? Trust once earned, abused, declines The novelty that stood, resigns, Distrust alone now hinders me. But what first caused this change in me? What once was lost to be regifted - Privilege earned so easily lifted - And defines the devil - what could it be? The lastly words that Caesar spoke (That William wrote so elegantly) Now stabs my mind consequently- Betrayal and distrust are now evoked. Betrayal which started as a lie To hide and bury a wrongful act Broke the very soulful pact- The rarest gift now left awry!
