2/20 trust

2/20:
topic given- 'write four odes- two serious, two silly'

Ode to Trust.
by Jaclyn Iaquinta.

To share one's soul in confidence
When soul is on the line,
While fearful of the consequence
Is something quite divine.
A quality as yet unmatched
By any of its kind
That brings about a type of peace
that all work hard to find.
To tell a secret is too bold
When trust is not so near,
And involves a sort of ignorance
That many others fear.
So trust in some but not in all
For trust is something rare,
Bare one's soul with certainty
Or have no soul to bare.
