Is Trust An Emotion

Is trust an emotion?
I pause jus for a moment hopin to
ponder
abt how ths elephant got to sitin 
on ma
shoulder
im supposed to b a soldier bt ths 
comotion in ma mind seems to
threaten my exposure
wonder how it became a secret, 
that i
was jus flesh and bone
just a man
cast some darknes on ma paper so i 
cn c ths world is bizzare the light is 
blinding
me
the ones i claim my own cannot 
bare the
site of me
and ths is all because of me, but 
who is
me? Faults and mistakes 
superimposd often
look the same
but mistakes only become wat they 
r
once atempted
nuthing ventured nuthng gained
nuthin ventured nuthng lost so y 
shld i apologize?
When attempts u expect of me give 
birth
to my mistakes
i have failed, i have been victorious
what then defines the man i am?
The moments i overcame? Or the 
mistakes that came and stayed to
remind me
to b wiser o die
bt death aint alway when u stop 
breathn.
Sumitmes its just wen ur life loses
meanin wen u lose what at the 
time seemd to b
ur reason 4 breathn..
In dat very moment, even 4 an 
instance,
u r dead...
bt i go bek to the question
is trust an emotion.? Trust is takin 
a leap, a giant 1, neva
pausin to blink.
Even wen u knw that the fal is wot
envitably cums next,.
trust is holdin ur breath til ur lungs
burn... Hopin.... N hop is all dat 
saves us
we fal in slow motion creatin da 
illusion
dat mayb....
n jus mayb we cn fly,.
Bt ofcourse we cnt,
cyclic story always ends wit a bg 
thud, as da knight trades hs shining 
armor for a
stockin mask he becums the thug...
And da princess takes a bow, her 
interest
was al a pretence..
So no, trust is nt an emotion its a 
choice...
Its a risk, calculated o nt dat we 
willingly take..
We cnt live behind a glas window 
lest da
world myt hurt us....
Coz pain is always beta than the
emptines of nuthn...
Ths our love myt hurt sum day.. Bt 
its beautiful today
nw knwin al this.. A simple 
question i
must enquire..
Do u trust me?
