I woke up this morning
With the feeling there was something missing
So with all that I have being the clothes on my back
I started out for who knows where
I felt the desire to search for trust
But it turns out it's just my luck
I had come upon the wrong address
Under the suns glare my sat nav blared 'make a U-turn' ahead
Trust up and moved on down the road
Who in this day and age would have ever known
Seems that trust felt the need to leave
And without trust who now can we believe
Perhaps it made friends with love
Or maybe made friends with deception
Something I would never know
And so I was back on my own
I am now on the road these days seldom taken
To find trust and help it prosper
I ask everyone I see if they could help tell me
But it seems trust is only a whisper
I will continue on in my travels
With that strong desire to fill trusts needs
As I am open to any direction
And all possibilities
