Hope and Trust

In your mind I tell the truth

In your heart I see you cry

I whisper through the pool of light

To guide you by my side

I have reached the chains that trap your laughter

I struggle through the lock


That surrounds

The arm around your

Love and care

All there is, is hope and trust

Within

The bleeding pain of life


This poem was written last year (2009). I guess it was at a time when I was thinking about how I'm supporting a friend. However it is about a few other things as well. I have written a couple of others with the same friend in mind and only because this person has unfortunately been 'touched' by something three times and it has created many feelings. At the end of the day they aren't totally about this person, it has just been that, that has been the trigger. Not only that but we find our own personal meaning within a poem, so they (the poems) are always open for different interpretations.
