Is It Easy To Trust

IS IT EASY TO TRUST

It's easy to trust
when there's nothing to lose.
Then you step out
in time without fear.
But when it's your life
that you've placed in the game
how much do you trust then, my dear?
It's easy to be brave
when there is no demand
on what will happen to you.
When you take from God only ice cream
you beam,
but Death becomes part of that too.
You want to be in a world far beyond
better than this one does seem.
It's easy to breathe in His Air.
But when do you breathe in His Dream?
