I have tried
so hard
to do what I could
to forget

To pretend
it wasn't real

To turn
a blind eye

To believe
in your honesty

I believed
that if it dealt
with my safety
with my level of
comfort
no matter
how unprepared
you were
that you would
care enough
about me
to be honest

But I was

And I hope that
one day
that trend
will end

And that
I will be
the only one
to know
all your deepest
secrets

And I will
know everything
when
I
need
