SALISBURY JUNCTIONS POEM 9

Oppressed by the heat, we rouse ourselves to work.

“The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.” Ernest Hemingway

Trust Me

There is a time for everything,

This means patience conquers all,

It is hard to be tranquil as it storms,

But we have each other on which to fall.

You can trust in me as we will never fail,

I hold your arm but in me is also strength,

The trials of life are not beyond us,

The life we take we choose by these successes.

Trust me to love you as surely then we cannot fail,

The shadow is long and creeps across the ground,

We shade ourselves but we must cross the parks,

Stalking across I lost my heart.

If you trust me then you will see me true,

There is no guile to me and that is false,

I do not lie to you because there is no lie to find,

So trust me and I will trust in you.

“Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.” Khalil Gibran
