Trust

Take my hand and lead me forward
blindfolded
in your care.
You can be my eyes and ears.
Hear it.
Feel it.
Surround me with your senses
and embrace me like the wind.
Awaken me,
petals in the sunshine,
so that I may breathe your every touch
and taste your words upon my lips.
Let me hear what you say
only with your eyes.
Watch my reactions melt
like sunlit ice,
dripping from a palette of purple and green,
then listen to the colors you make me feel.
Touch gravity.
Breathe yes.
Taste love.
Hear it growing.
Witness trust.
