Faith

Somethings coming. I can feel it.

Round and round we anticipated the dance.

Girl senseless to her world

Boy drifting within his void

She reached her hand out

Not a care for who was on the other end

The boy was arrested,

Imprisoned in the world the girl seemingly

Spoke into being

Her hand speaks butterflies into his stomach

Her hand gave eyes to her sense

Service to vision

Blind lead the blind

It is by faith that we may see.

[Rosalie-O]

The poem speaks to me of two people coming together, each with their own personal difficulties, who have extended and accepted a hand of faith to take, and share, so each can step beyond their current void. Putting our faith and trust in another can sometimes lead to wonderful consequences. Your final two lines are well expressed.

So often in life two people meet who each have problems to deal with. As they get to know each other they extend, not just their hands, but their hearts to each other as trust and faith in each other grow and you have very finely penned that in this poem, iTry! It sounds, reading the poem, as if they were both either soaked in alcohol or drugs when the met. The boy entered the girls world and sadly, both were 'blind' (not visually) to reality. Sounds as though they didn't stay together, but split up. I am left wondering if they were suited to each other, it doesn't sound as though they were. By mistakes we learn! Well expressed poem and I like the layout very much. Thank you for sharing, dear poet...
