trust is like faithA Poem by RuseInexi trust the overpasses i drive under won't collapse upon me leaving me paper thin squashed beneath megatons of concrete instantly integrated, with my car's metal, liquified mixture of flesh and pulverized bone like what happened to human victims in oakland, california years ago and if it happens in one way or another, i trust in God who preserves the eternal state of my soul though my body be burned with fire my bones to dust i stub my toe, i cut my hand and finger no pleasant things like these do i care to have my body loses strength with daily malaise threats disease and vice lie at the threshold of every door unexpected tragedy expected any, every day happens to the lot of us, no escape i trust in peace of mind while entrust to him the God who made heaven and the universe i trust earthquakes, tornadoes and hurricane tsunami survival and things of that nature radiation fallout, poisoned water, traffic accidents human errors through which to cope i trust i survive unphased, unmaimed but if i succumb to death by that hand or land in a wheelchair or hospital bed, i hope and trust in God who preserves my eternal state, my soul though my body be burned with fire my bones to dust i trust that if i be in a milling crowd of bullets flying my people brothers dying, caring for the wounded loving the fallen, by the ruthless hand of a psycho killer wielding weapons of senseless hate, i trust in God who preserves the eternal state of souls who trust in him though i may not fully understand i trust in him by default borne of years led by his hand i wasn't there when he made it all but i know enough to trust in him like i know enough to follow love, live by his truth, know enough to refrain from evil know the difference between it and good i trust in my ability to think and reason keep at work, watch my back, i've read about nuclear attack still pay my bills, i know the fine line between poverty and wealth been both places and in between, its understood learned it does no good to get mad at God i trust that if i were to be destitute tomorrow and lose it all that God would take care of me in one way or another i trust i will not lose my mind as i ponder the myriad traps the unseen snares tomorrow's challenges of predicted coming storms political world's upheaval's, wars and rumors of war i dwell on dread like most human kinds ignorance may be bliss to common beasts knowledge is good, but may cause worry, anxiety and pain i trust in God though i walk through the valley of shadow of death and i fear no evil i've seen my fellow human brothers through the media all around the world by telecommunication, technology's boon i've seen their sufferings mostly, though some good celebrations too sometimes it seems the world is becoming unglued between man and nature's doings but i chose to trust in all the good the good of humanity is doing to undo the bad that some men seem bent to inflict on their own i trust and seek and i find in you reason for being love beyond my capability's own i find in you the truth it will not shake from my trust it will not falter, waver long when i lose sight of you through some calamity of man or nature's doing i trust that when i lose my sight of you, it will again restored be though my ears have heard and seen in printed form some men mock your name and fame i trust in your words and deeds upon this earth through all of living history past through to today and what tomorrow brings i have no other choice © 2016 RuseInex |
