What is trust?
I don't know
I've never been told
I just wandered around here
In the dark
Cold
I've stumbled sometimes
Met the ground
On my hands, knees
But then I felt you
Touch my shoulder
Turn me around
What is trust?
I asked
You said
Trust is walking
Back
Into the dark
Blind
But believing who is with you
Knows the way
That they'll take care of you
Watch over you
Lead you into the light
But can I trust?
I asked
You said
"Yes you will learn,
If you follow me."
Trust
A five letter romance
An after-glow of something more
Or something less
A timeless committment
An unbeatable truth
A lie, a smile, a fake, a tear
A slip of hand, a bruise to the face
Or an ego deflated
A glimpse of promise
A catch of faith
Or a hallucination of carelessness
A friend, a lover, a teacher
For the strong
But more so,
For the weakest.
What is trust?
Is it that moment of stupididy where one lets their guard down,
And opens their vulnerabilities to someone?
Why would anyone want that?
Why did I want that?
Is it possible
To trust again and again after so many stabbings
In the back and the heart and the mind by those I once loved?
Why would anyone want that?
Why did I want that?
Could there possibly be
A person on this planet who can be trusted,
Who won't turn around and break me like all the others?
Why would anyone want that?
Why do I want that?
Trust.
It's something earned,
Not given.
It's like an ember of my heart,
Placed inside yours
To hold and protect.
Extinguishing it or throwing it away
Will break our bond,
It may never be repaired.
Don't try to steal an ember,
For it's not rightfully yours
Until I personally place it in your chest.
Once it's there,
It grows and strengthens
Until it's a fire.
A fire of trust
That can't be extinguished
That can't be thrown out.
It will always be there,
Linking me to you.
"I have trust issues..."
I say as you sit and stare.
"So, what do you mean?"
You ask, not understanding.
I don't know how to explain.
But I try my best.
"I have trouble trusting people."
I slowly say.
"Oh."
You simply say.
As if you understand.
"Well, that's not,
That big of a deal."
You don't understand.
"Yes it is."
I simply say.
"I don't see how that is,
Everyone is like that."
You try to play it down.
"No, you're wrong."
So very wrong.
You don't know what its like,
To be around your friends and familly,
The people you care about.
And not trust them.
Not be able to trust them.
No matter how much you want to.
You

Closeted!Bisexual!Markiplier x Queer!Male!Reader
I take a seat next to the chair Mark pulled out for himself, and I cross my legs as he turns the camera on. He comes back and sits in his chair and I steal a glance of his kitchen, biting my lip as I see his shirt rise up a little and quickly releasing it.
"Hello everybody my name is Markiplier, and I'm here with my friend (M/N)!" He waves into the camera, and I wave too. "Today we're going to do something a little different, and it's called the "what the hell is in my mouth? challenge". Basically, (M/N) is going to put something in, or near my mouth, and I'm going to have to tell him what it is. Ready? Let's go!!" I tie the blindfold around
