Trust of Love
© N Noël April 2009
Makes the heart full
And the soul wanders
Days upon night rolling like thunder
Rushing in giddy with anticipation
Smiling in the dark of night
That’s why fools rush in
I don’t trust LOVE
Happiness when warm lips touch
The loins all a flutter
Hanging on to every word
Even when it’s just clutter
Breathing deep, looking at the other sleep
Making plans to hold hands for future times together
The heart can’t wait make no mistake
I don’t trust LOVE
Inhaling their scent from the sheets of a night spent
Mind plays tricks; makes you think they’re lying at your side
Feelings and emotions run high longing grows deeper inside
Eyes closed brings images of lust, keeps one thinking there is an “US”
I don’t trust LOVE
White dresses and picket fences
Empty emotions expressed with such conviction
The “I Do” and the “I Love You” plans made between two
One minute it’s so true in a split second trust has been evicted
The heart so bruised tired of being used
I don’t trust LOVE
The body and the mind conflict all the time
One caught up with desire the other avoids that fire
The bargaining between the two
Lead us with a “What to do?”
Forgive and start again or let go; stay sane
The passion, the hurt and the pain
Dare I trust myself again?
I don’t trust LOVE
