I Trust You

Is a mindset endless?

Will I crumple and fall?

Which part wants this?

Which is scared of it all?

…

Which of the voices

wants us to thrive?

Stay locked together,

fight strong and strive.

…

Which in my head

wants us to part?

Let go before

there is damage to heart.

…

Which of the screamers

begs me to flee?

Rip back my heart

and take care of me.

…

And which is naïve?

Denying it all;

you don’t hold my heart

and I will not fall.

…

Why do I question

so many things

about my life

and what my fate brings?

…

Why can’t I sit back,

keep holding your hand,

and quiet these voices?

Can’t I make a stand?

…

I can’t deny

your affect on my state,

the way I feel,

or my changing heart rate.

…

So next time voices

attempt override,

I’ll grip your hand tighter,

because you’re on my side.
