Trust

by The Wingless   Mar 15, 2006


It's my brain, not my heart
That's kept me on track
If I leave now
There's no turning back

Tell me trust is real
I need to get away from lies
Tell me trust is real
And I'll stop my silent cries

I don't know who I am
Nor who I've been
I'll speak my words
And send them when I sin

What exactly is a heart
What's one made of gold
Gold is hard like steel
Does that mean it's cold?

If I can't trust my shadow
Am I living a proper way?
Should I hold trust in my hand
Or ignore what it has to say?

Tell me trust is real
I need to get away from lies
Tell me trust is real
And I'll stop my silent cries

    Amazing poem..not only did the repetition of that stanza have dramatic effect (got it right:P) but the topic was simple yet so confusing.
    You delvged (sp?) into an area of trust that is often ignored.
    So well done.
    In the end trust is often over-used and often broken. But that's life right?

    Much love

    Turst is a funny little word, and a hard one to use. I don't know why you wrote this hunny, but it came at a good time. if you know about last night I'm sorry... I do trust you word and your word alone.

    Poem wise: very inquizative, and very dark. it pushes the reader to think about the theme and its meaning, not many poems can do this. Well done. the repitition is well placed.

    Again I'm probably jumping to conclusions but I don't really care, I love you Mike with all my heart. I do trust you.
