Trust is to Kite as...
~~~They say that the reason that
they don't let me do some things
is that I have proven distrustful.
~~~
I run hard down the hill
hoping that the kite
catches the wind and soars
~~~
They say that they take baby
steps so that I can gain
their trust in me
~~~
The kite catches wind and
soars, keeping with in a few
feet, just within my reach
~~~
They say that when I mess
up, they have to restart
the process over, taking longer
~~~
The kite dips and does
twirls. I gasp as it take
sa sudden dive to the tree
~~~
They say that it'll take
longer to gain the trust back
each time I screw up.
~~~
The kite crashes down to
the ground. I fear it will hit
another object so I keep it near.
~~~
They say that I may never
get that trust back, that
I may never be as privileged.
~~~
The kite doesn't catch wind until I
loosen up the string and gently guide it
and it soars higher than ever.
~~~
They say- well who cares what they say.
I think that they just need
gentle guidance and a longer leash.
