Trust

Out of repetitiveness, seasons of waves and turbulences,

a sense of trust builds upon yourself —

like a faithful cast iron pan you’ve used over the years —

beyond the appearance, the comfort, the reputation,

a certain kind of allegiance, loyalty, and trust builds on.

Without wishing for anything in return.

But, remember to keep your head down,

Check yourself with impartiality like a cold thin knife blade;

many have already gone through the grind,

and those who know maintain their silence like a cloak.
