When everything's made to be broken...I Just want you to know who i am...

People who are really really close to you. People YOU are really really close to..People you think you 'Know'. Ones you've spent 10-12 years with..others you've spent a few months or days with, but ones you think you know, nonetheless. What do you do when they spring surprises on you? Some you've been expecting unconsciously...others that hit you like a speeding truck. Wham! Does it break something? Does it leave a gash? Sometimes. It feels like nothing at others- at least consciously. How do you recover from something like that? Do you stop trusting? Do you half trust and pull yourself out when you feel it's getting messy? Do you trust and leave yourself open to the slashing? What do you do? Do you lose your faith? Or hold on to it like the only threads of sanity in the world that's forever tearing apart? Can you ever really know who i am?

Clearly you're thinking too much and clearly you've gotten it from me, sorry didnt know it was so awfully contagious :P
and since i fall in category one of the people you described, i promise not to ever spring surprises on you if that's what makes you happy, now cheer up will you?

"Once trust is lost, it can be impossible to recover. Of course the truth is: we never know who we can trust. Those we're closest to can betray us, and total strangers can come to our rescue. In the end, most people decide to trust only themselves. It really is the simplest way to keep from getting burned."
This one goes for the undertoad post too...
