Trust in me

Trust in me
The words seem too fragile to believe
So many things in this life are too fragile
Hearts unloved will break if not handled
With tenderness and compassion
The joining of two, strengthens the both
And makes them impervious to the harshness of life
Trust in me
The words are soothing
Trusting is what brings hearts together
But it is also what breaks them
Trust in me
I will trust in you
I will trust in us
I will believe in the joining
Chance the breaking
For if it comes
I will never mend
And I cannot think of never
If I want to believe in forever
Trust in me
So fragile
Like my heart
It is lain open to you
Naked and vulnerable
Unprotected for the joining
Trust in me
Heaven help me…
I do
