I Need Do Nothing More Than Trust
By Clyde E. Gumbs

 

My opinions never matter

It matters not what I may think

Whenever stuck in contemplation

Deeper and deeper I do sink

 

How can I ever know for certain

What in life do I really control

Is there any true protection

Are answers found in a black hole

 

So many times it seems so hopeless

No matter what I say or do

So many times fear has consumed me

When illusion dominates my view

 

There is a place so deep within me

Where a voice cries out to be heard

And when in silence I do listen

Trust is the only spoken word

 

In a world of pure confusion

What could there ever be to trust

A world so filled with disappointment

A world of danger and disgust

 

But what if nothing need be certain

Nothing that needed be known

What if I needed no protection

No circumstance I could not own

 

What if my life was just a journey

With destination I needn’t see

What if my life was for a purpose

And that purpose was my destiny

 

What if I need only trust my spirit

What if I need only trust my soul

Despite what seems like imperfection

What if I was truly whole
 

Until I face my final challenge

Until my body turns to dust

No matter what will ever happen

I need do nothing more than trust
