In no one I trust

In no one I trust

I keep it hidden

In a place only I know

Covered by darkness

Buried in distance

Mired in deception

Scarred by time

Innocence lost

I hide it from trust

I keep it to myself

Yet alone it has no value

A corrosive parasite

Struggling to be free

It cannot be free

There is no sanctuary

Another cut begets extinction

And in no one I trust
