I trust you
In general
But don’t trust you
In this instance
People are different
In different situations
Acting out
Aspects of themselves
That may be
Contradictory
I don’t know you
Well enough yet
To know
How consistent
Or reliable you are
Across the board
And I have been betrayed before
So I’m not even sure
If I can trust
My trust
Regardless
