Copyright Information – “something i can trust”

"something i can trust...

if i'm being honest... my relationship with trust
is a distant one, and my trust in the universe is a timid thing
because life has felt bigger, and this path has felt harder
at times than i've been able to take.

and i'm still trying to believe that i am growing wings
that were measured just for me, that are right-sized just. for. this.
strong enough to lift me through it and beautiful enough to
make it all worth it. but this distance with trust has made me
feel anything but sure... and i guess trust is a muscle memory
i just don't yet have.

but i want to.

so when the light seems quiet, and the guidance
feels hushed, i'm going to lean in. because maybe it's gone
quiet to get me to lean in... just so i can learn that when the voice
inside has something to say... that it's something i can trust."
