Love Poem: Trust

Trust

If you loved me could I trust you
Beyond illusion's farthest bound?
While the moon shines, the wind blew
And the world went spinning around.
In the tangles of loose snares
Of the devil's robust net,
You said you loved me only
But you do not love me yet.

I love you but I can't trust you
Any further than that door;
For many worlds and seasons change
But in time you'll love me more.
So dear, until I believe you
As women try to know men;
You know that I will trust you
But I will not love you then.
