Trust

I have opened my world to you

To have a glimpse of what is true

The lies that have gone before

May now be laid to rest

 

I have opened my heart to you

So you may see my intentions are pure

So often misunderstood

Yet all is laid bare for you

 

I have walked you through my dreams

So that with sight you may see

All you see is not always all there is

Trust requires seeing beyond your eyes

 

I have opened my mind to you

In the hopes you may now understand

But please don’t be deceived

This is a privilege not many have had

So please don’t misuse
