I Trust Your Sadness
I will not trust a person
that has no sign of sadness
in their features.
With sadness comes acceptance,
comes a well-seasoned love.
I will not trust a priest
no matter what happy face
or hell-fire he offers.
What I trust is the God in your heart,
the God in your eyes,
the God deep within your own life.
That I trust.
