A PONDER OF SOME CARNIVAL

'A Ponder Of Some Carnival'
lights up my brain
am I clear in my questions
or merely over thinking
much of the same
emotionally spent as I've been
my mind flips and turns
like a manipulated pin ball
am I like Jesus in the desert
mentally tortured for 40 days
love and fear tend to commingle
at the root of such turmoils
has the reality put on a hat of fiction
or are my old issues merely raising
their raspy voices
one word continually comes to mind
deep out of the usual fog
trust
without trust love is but an illusion
painted over with pretty ideas and words
a wordsmith such as me should be well
acquainted with such concepts
waiting, a mere moniker of patience
is my best path to follow
a few more days I dare declare
and all the before thought to be broken
fences
will miraculously mend
it's the unknown after all that scares illogical fears
the most
just watch me as my most prepares for me
the heaven he has gloriously been depicting.........

Author's Notes/Comments: 

was sorting through some issues I've been dealing with and it hit me quite suddenly it all has to boil down to trust. This person has never broken my trust before so I must trust him like he asked for the next few more days until more concrete facts are revealed in their appropriate time. The negative doubting mind though as you know is a very hard thing to fight. This poem comes from that inner struggle I've been having with myself.
