 Trust 


The word Trust has been lingering for weeks in my Head 

Like a bank of fog on a rainy day

Just waiting for a sunny day to clear it away


Truly, what is Trust?

Should you never question another persons word?

Is that a form of not trusting?


Can you ever get back to a place to Trust?

After trust has been kicked on, spat on, and ground into the dirt

I don’t know......


Trust shattered like glass

Strong but vunerable  - factured


Trust was burnt

Maybe a piece still lingers

Like a root of a tree buried beneath the ground

Just waiting for the right combination of elements


Trust was tested not so long ago

One of the hardest nights 

Confused, conflicted, and scared 

Twisted thoughts swirling


Truthfully, can trust be restored?

Deep Breath  - there is hope

Heart open  - Trust....

I see the fog lifting

Awakening


From the ashes I rise and continue to fly

I can see - really see

As I cry


My soul sings with freshness

Stretching  my arms out wide

embracing which was denied 


Senses heightened - saturating 

Almost to much to fast 

Afraid this will not last


Reborn fearless 

racing at a faster pace

my spirit guiltless


From the ashes I have risen

I can see - really see

Freed from my prison

Anticipation

I feel the excitement bubble up inside of me
Like a tea kettle on the stove
I keep looking at the clock...

No, its not time yet, find something to do
Pace, clean, nervous energy
I look at the clock again.....

I feel like a child saying to a parent “Are we there yet?”
A present that has been waiting to be unwrapped
I look at the clock again.....

Maybe I need to check another clock
I’m certain the hands have not moved
I make myself a promise not to look again

Okay, it must be almost time
Is everything in place?
How do I look?
I looked at the clock again....

My heat is pounding
I’m sure if you were standing next to me you could hear the thudding
I have not felt this way for so long
Do they feel the same way?
I look at the clock again....

I’m making to much out of this
No, I don’t think so
I’m nervous
Butterflies in my stomach
My face is flushed just thinking about the first anticipated 
Kiss
Ive stopped looking at the clock
He is here
