Measure II: Trust

I don't trust myself.
Period.
I'll say it again,
I don't trust myself.
"How" we'll ask.
By the mistakes I've been.
I don't trust myself to make mistakes.
This is dangerous,
for I turn to trust your ways.
As my hand has touched this fire
and been burned before,
I don't trust you either.
No, my trust is worn.
"Trust in God"
Yes, I agree.
But if you cannot trust yourself
what makes me think you can trust Peace?
So trust is the lesson that
constantly yearns
for my attention
to keep as I learn.
