He trusted her with his money,
And every penny remains.
He knew that she was honest,
But kept his heart in chains.


He trusted her with his secrets,
And his words shall die with her.
She proved she could be loyal,
But alone his time was safer.

He trusted her with his travel,
And was always happy with life.
Slowly, then, he realized that
He wanted her as his wife.

He trusted her with his health,
And never felt more alive.
Then he told her of his love
He’d chosen not to hide.

He trusted her with his compassion,
But his life was far from complete.
He trusted her with his loving heart,
Which she did only mistreat.
