Naive, Faithful Little Girl

You are scared for me.

Because you know I am naive.

You think people will get away,

from the pain they may cause me.

You worry,

Because of me.

About me.

For me.

You should know,

I am naive.

And I am scared,

No terrified.

I feel,

Like I cannot trust anyone.

No one.

Not even the people I thought I loved.

Sometimes I am hopeful,

hoping that I will have faith in someone.

Someone,

Who will not betray me,

Or cause me any sort of pain.

There are times,

When I look at you,

And you look at me.

And I wonder......

If you have faith in me?

Will,

You ever?

Now?

In the next life?

When?

For now,

I will be the one little girl.

Who is naive.

Terrified.

But,

I promise you this,

I was,

And will always be the "little girl",

Who had faith in you.

Now, it's your turn,

To look at me,

And answer the question.
