Fears of Trusting

My fear of trusting is gone
I think I lost it so long ago
Maybe in a forgotten love, or a broken heart
Telling you the trust...I really don't know
I do know that things are different though
The calluses are so tough and strong
The wounds from the past are healed over now
The scars...I'm afraid will never be gone
I know right now I can't ignore them
They remind me of the trust I once had in my life
The joy I felt along with the pain
The memories somewhere I started to sacrifice
