Beauty is a gift. 

Not a ‘given.’ 

Or a item handed to one,

 Like some believe. 

Similar to beauty, trust is a gift.

Trust can be earned,

Just as fast lost.

When you trust someone you are putting yourself,

   In a vulnerable position. 

Vulnerability is scary. 

Everything in the open;

Exposed to the world

Anyone can see, 

Anyone can look. 

There is no hiding when you are exposed.

How can you take back the vulnerability? 

      -  You can’t.  -

That person, or persons will still know you,

Your past,

Your struggles. 

You can’t undo that.

But you can stop more trust from forming.

More experiences from being shared. 

That’s up to you.
