Teach Me How To Trust Poem by Ms Thang

Teach Me

Teach me how to trust.
Teach me how to let go of it all.
Teach me how to feel safe.
Teach me how to trust that you’ll come when I call.

You know most of my life’s been built on abuse and neglect
And the rest has been filled with guilt and regret.

I find it hard to believe that I can be loved.
That I can be yours only and still be enough.

I want to change, learn how to relax
In spite of the fear or how others act.

Teach me how to find a place full of serenity
One that I know will always be you and me.

Teach me how to trust.
Teach me how to let down my wall.
Teach me to close my eyes
And trust you’ll catch me when I fall.

Teach me how to believe that you’ll always want me
That you’ll never leave and will never stop loving me.

Help me to find what I’ve never known
The white picket fence around a happy home.

Please be patient with me
I know it can be difficult
When my insecurities and fear
Hide behind the pain I’ve felt.

I want to love you with all of me
I want to share with you every ounce of me.

I’ll give you all that I have
And love you the best way I can
I promise you all that I am
And vow to be your #1 fan.

Just hold me and when I’m scared
Reassure me when I’m afraid
That you’ll still love me
And be here at the end of the day

That today tomorrow and forever more
A life together is what is in store.
