Journey With Me

On trust

Speak to me of your childhood,

Tell me what brought you such pain.

Whisper your sad secrets softly

Without fear of anger or shame.

Trust me to love you quite simply,

To judge not, nor ever to blame.

Consider my arms a safe haven

In which you may rest from the games.

Then together we'll journey to freedom

No longer bound by their lies.

Find peace from the battlefield's fury;

In dignity we will survive.

Well done with this piece! A minor suggestion from me would be to make the slant rhymes whole; For a poem that makes concrete meanings, slant rhymes don't seem fit. And if avoidable, please do avoid rhyming plural with singular.

Once again, well done.

Keep writing.

nice work...this poem has a soft spoken expression that flows quite well...to trust someone is at times a difficult task...

Wonderful and delightful poetry, in the manner it should be written. You're good.

trust is hard to come by really. Does anybody really truly trust anybody these days? I like what you have to say here.
