Faith's Foolish Heart

slightly revamped

 

Faith's Foolish Heart

Faith never lacks in her devotion.

She tempts the heart to walk out to the edge of Love and we all know love is blind.

Faith, what has she to do with reason?.

Have her , hold her, set her free.

Faith is always trying to bridge my tempest seas, she whispers in my ear

“ Go, I'll be there” .

But sometimes , I have lost sight of her and feel so very alone, without that foolish Faith's heart to guide me.

So, I call out to her and she comes, her hand is hard to hold and sometimes she says,

“Don't look down , you'll fall”.

I look upward to the sky and she is right again.

I have walked through forest of deep depression, always looking up.

Faith runs ahead of me, she calls back.

“ Don't worry, if you lose sight of me, I'll find you”,

and she always does.

This write is a wonderful look at something that is our constant companion. Faith. The poem itself manages to have quite a lonely feel to it but as it is about one of lifes ethereal treasures, then that is to say the words have definately hit their intended mark, so well done.
Thanks for reminding this reader of something quite important but easily lost.

faith never fails us we fail faith... usually do to fear... a very highly motivational write.

I like this poem! I found it very inspiring. Faith always finds you, even if you lose sight of her for a while. Definitely one of my favorites.
