Trust

A blindfold, around my eyes

One foot in front of the other

Across the tight rope, there’s no net

I walk, not blind

Steady, carefully measured steps

You’re there, on the ground

Guiding, speaking softly, assuring me

I fear falling less than I do not walking

I trust you, I have faith in me

I extend my hands, offer my heart

Don’t let me down

I’ve shown you my soul

Protect me, believe in me

I walk, not blind

I will not fall
