Love and Trust

The warmth of love I did not feel Love slept it was trust I needed Till love I felt our lips did seal Trust was more the words I heeded Love had left my pillow so cold Then some words I did read I thought ‘I love you and must now be bold’ Twas trust and love combined I sought My numbed soul did once more now stir The sleep like state my soul lived in As gifts or frankincense and myrrh Not knowing that life would now begin These words that some will pray to hear I love and trust and want you near © 15/ 04 /2013 ~GG~
