Believe in...

Trust..

it’s a simple word 

yielding so much power..

It renders us fragile..

Misconstrued 

Misunderstandings

first casualty of any relationship..

It’s a slippery slope..

so many meanings to each person..

Who defines what it is..

We all know what “trust” is supposed to mean..

But life gives it our own meaning  - 

shaping and forming us in ways not expected..

trust takes on a life of its’ own filling in the gaps and holes of our soul 

So that we might feel whole..

We smile and carry on

talking ever so loudly with nothing to say

hoping it covers what’s hidden inside..

tethered and beaten 

exhausted and worn

no more taping up all the torn 

Still I will love 

Still I will trust 

For I am not a victim of all that life thrusts..

I’ll throw you my rope 

there you’ll find hope 

as we twist and turn on this slippery slope..

open your heart 

Let me inside

we will be strong

for there’s nothing to hide..
