Trusting and Being Trustworthy

The sanctity of conduct determines the durability of relations,
The disguised face is revealed when clashed with expectations.

If the plinth of a palace is laid on the surface of selfishness ,
The stability is uncertain and beyond common cohesiveness.

It is only time that exposes the veracity of something or some one ,
Despite a long stay, association and encounters quite awesome.

The real success lies in reaching the summit of commitment,
Not in taking the U-turn for corporeal or mundane attainment.

Trusting and being trustworthy accomplish the journey of any kind of relation,
Devoid of which,all the versions in varied roles prove to be futile, breeding retaliation.
