11 Poems About Trust in Yourself, Others & Something Bigger Than You
Trust represents the foundations of our lives; a subtle whisper, built on the stepping stones of solidarity and quiet actions over time.
When we trust in ourselves, others, and something greater, we move through life with grace, flow, and ease. Trust is the basis for all kinds of peace.
During our human experience, it is not uncommon for our trust to be broken by others. And whether you’re a cup-half-empty or a cup-half-full kind of person, distrust may dim your faith in yourself, your heart, and humanity.
However, no matter how many lies or false promises you have received, do not let distrust bring you to your knees. Instead, open your heart to something bigger than you and me and uplevel your faith in ways only you can see.
I hope this collection of poems about trust uplifts your soul and gives you the faith you need to keep your heart gold.
Poems About Trust
1. A quiet kind of trust
trusting you taught me that love is not loud.
trusting you taught me that love is patient, persistent and pure.
trusting you taught me that love is humble, kind and slow – quiet whispers laced throughout the seasons of our lives.
trusting you taught me that i did not have to give my body, in a state of numbness, but instead allow my skin to warm to you like honey – over time.
trusting you taught me that i did not have to lose myself, to be loved by you – nor lose God in the making of me.
trusting you taught me that i could be myself heal myself, speak myself and become the best version of me.
trust isn’t just a five-letter word, it’s the story of you and me.
original poem by – Jadine Lydia
2. I want To Learn to Trust You - butterflies rising
i hand you my heart on a gold-plated daisy braid you through my hair and whisper with sincerity – let me trust your chain and follow your guidance wisely knowing that every step is blessed with your divinity.
sometimes it feels like a curse to have loved you, trusted you, and honoured you so deeply – worshiping your sovereignty. i look back on our time together wearing rose-tinted glasses, as love swirled through my veins, only to be split, spat and broken in one sharp moment, as the harsh truth was revealed. every murmur of doubt whispered by others, i now hear from your mouth is true. now where does that leave, my rose-tinted memories, and all the love i had for you?
even though my path is unclear i release all doubt and let go of my fear i trust in myself and i trust the divine and know that i am always right on time; i walk into the path of love.
