We've all been hurt and
some tell us  a lie.
It makes me want to  lay down
and cry.
Then I think of the ones that
have been by my side,
We learn to trust a few at a time
and take it in stride.
We see each other at times, stumble,
and fall.
Sooner or later, we slowly, yet surely
break down a wall,
when we learn to trust and
in Christ follow.
It helps us to become less shallow,
and hollow.
For love and forgiveness is
God's caring way,
and to those that struggle with this-
for them I pray.
