Trust is a tricky thing
Even those most trustworthy
Can fail to come through
When the need is subtle
Or dire
You find out
What people are made of
When you cross over
The proscribed formulas
For human engagement
And have needs
That require
A level of sensitivity
That is not taught
That typically
Is not expected
Though it is both
Needed and warranted
