Love Needs Trust

             Love Needs Trust

I see a lot when I look in your eyes.

 Could it be you are telling me lies?

The specks of gold are pretty in the blue.

It takes me to a place I never knew.

 

Like floating in the clouds above.

My hand in yours, like a glove.

Yet, is there a storm on the horizon?

I pray to God that you’re not lying.

 

Let it remain as it is right now.

Bright sunny days, I will allow.

The coming storm is not to be.

As long as you remain with me.

 

There is no reason for me to distrust.

Burned in the past. A victim of lust.

But, things are different this time.

You are quite different, I find.

 

Maybe I am seeing what’s not there.

A mirage sign that’s saying beware.

Just a vision of my imagination.

Emotional scaring causes hesitation.

 

We will take it a day at a time.

Trust will build within my mind.

In time, the scars will heal over.

Then, we are rolling in the clover.

 

Love is like a teeter totter in ways.

You’re up, then down over the days.

The past can affect what happens now.

I hope it will all change somehow.

 

I am willing to give it a try.

I see the smile in your eye.

Looks like we are on our way.

Each day will be a better day.
