Gamble on me
Trust I seek, and I find in you;
Fear of me.
Don't fear the unknown;
Hold out your hand and breathe.
Roll the dice;
Take a gamble on me.
What it lands on, we don't *KNOW
Let Fate take the control;
*IT'S the deal at hand, choose.
I believe in you;
believe in *ME
I trust in you;
please trust in me.
Together
Trust I seek,
And I find in you.
Hope I hold,
And I give to you.
Love I need,
And I gain through you.
Happiness I feel,
Because of you.
Determination I know,
Because you love me too.
Courage I have,
Because I learned it from you.
Those I earn,
And those I receive.
Each is found,
Through simpler times.
You and I,
We gain the same things,
And these hold us together
Through the darker days.
Trusting in Your Shadows
As I descend to charcoal depths
impure blood roils and seethes
churning waves and troubled spirits.
Naked and ashamed I stand
in darkness too powerful to battle
washed over me by your presence,
a touch as cold as night.
My unhinged soul
is ripped asunder,
embers sputtering in my cage.
I kneel in your shadow and wonder
if I’ll ever taste purity again.
Death hides in your dulcet words
entrenched wickedness emanating
as you stands with black raven
perched on your shoulder,
savage heart unfolding.
My inner pain throbs
broken rib cages
tossed in spite
on refuse piles.
Hidden cuts,
scarring my eyes,
wash into my body.
I wonder if I’ll ever know
what’s right for me
as I cling to you
realizing in pangs
that you are my destiny.
I find the trust I seek
in you,
knowing your murkiness
is embroiled and ever present.
My trusting ravished core
joins you in your shadows.
Trust
I find it in you when the world
Rips through your paper skin
Peeled back and exposed
It's beautiful
how much you hurt and
bleed faith all over my
Blackened heart
I'm remorseful that your suffering serves such a purpose
To teach and release your
Shining crest upon me
When I possess no speck of
The light that shines so brightly
In your veins
Trust I did seek and I find in you
that in your breaking
I am saved
This Is
Found this poem I wrote a long time ago, but still holds true today...
This is for the God who cuddles me goodnight,
He hugs me and squeezes me oh so tight,
This is for the God who tells me not to fear,
At the end of each day He says "talk to me dear",
This is for the God who sees me at my worst,
Yet His word I seek with a passioned thirst,
This is for the God who allows me to cry,
And gives me hope on the days I just want to die,
This is for the God who showed me what love is,
The God says it's okay I'm not a math-wiz,
This is for the God who gave me a gift to write,
Who never lets me out of His sight,
This is for the God who makes promises that last,
Takes and forgives the sins of my past,
This is for my God who is all of these things,Joy He finds in watching over His beings.

Sham
What is this fable called trust?
A bogus concept often discussed.
Many times I have sought,
But always for naught,
My efforts were met with disgust.
Some argue that trust does exist,
And emphatically they will insist.
But I find few dependable,
Most deem others expendable,
Yet despite my dissent they persist.
For trust is nothing but illusion,
A mainstream-induced mass delusion.
It is merely a lie,
And until the day I die,
I will eschew this misguided collusion.
“Believe In Me”
Trust I seek and I find in you
The most unlikely place to find myself. Open and exposed. Handing a stranger my insecurities and pain. But you're standing here tattoed redemption on your heart. Looking down at me. I'm frightened and tainted. Even in this room filled with windows and light. I fear the approaching night. The darkness. The thoughts that come with it. But your here with your hand caressing my head leaning in to kiss me. I can smell the bourbon on your breath and for a moment it draws me Away from my fear.
Believe in me you whisper and I want too. I want to believe that this is real. But you're young and volatile and unstable as fuck. And I'm fighting it. But every particle of my existence believes you; believes in you as your Bourboned lips find mine and you pull me into your arms.
I've sought you. Through the fabric of time and I am whole.
