Sleepless confusion
I give everyone the benefit of the doubt
and I haven't decided if it's a
positive
or
negative
aspect of my personality.
Everyone gets the benefit of the doubt,
more than once.
Fool me once
shame on you.
Fool me twice
shame on me.
I let it be a shame on me
because I always want people to prove
that they are better then they seem.
I fucking can't stand how dumbly optimistic I am sometimes.
