Faith's Grace

Faith's Grace

A Poem by Marguerite
"

Betrayal of trust, love and faith

"

It started out as little things, things that were not true

I closed my eyes to little things, so much faith I had in you.

Time and time little things grew, honor proved untrue

I closed my eyes to larger things, So much faith I had in you.

 

There came a day for me to prove, that faith does conquer fear

And to my heart,vows to stay, to stay forever near.

Time had told that trust proved false, you had disappeared

Without a word you shattered trust, and left me to what I feared.

 

And when the one you left for, no longer served your need

Once again and again, your thoughts returned to me.

With gentle words and promises, you spoke directly to my faith

Never once regretting, the betrayal of faiths grace.

 

Time progressed and many things, to realness proved untrue

Keeping me in a hidden place, not allowed to accompany you.

Whispered words from all around, pictures before my eyes

The truth of why you kept me far, protect time and time past lies.

 

And at this time can you believe, with so much shown untrue

And all the pain, disgrace and shame, I didn’t loose faith in you.

Time again and once again, I read things with my eyes

To others you meet - to me false, and promises were lies.

 

And again handwritten, a conditioning to be untrue

How and how to betray, the faith I had in you.

Love born faith so hard to shake,  strong, consistent and true

No remorse for betraying grace, faith's grace eluded you.

Wow! This is a very cathartic piece. I am impressed by how well it flows. It is very well written, brute heart felt honesty is very unique.. This is a profoundly moving and emotional piece. It was a excellent read.
