Faith
Faith
As a fallen leaf gently wanders on a forgotten stream,
it follows the same path as misguided dreams.
We forget our faith somewhere along the way,
suddenly even the bluest skies turn gray.
We pass by children without turning to see their faces,
failing to hear the laughter they enjoy in his grace.
We call it normal what we do to life,
as our darkened paths squander the everlasting light.
Our eyes release an endless stream of tears,
as our hearts whither from hardened years
In defiance we follow our own path,
now we must endure his sorrowed wrath.
Do we not know how to find our way again?
It’s as simple as calling on an old friend.
If we open our hearts, arms and minds,
the gray skies will part and the sun will shine.
Stray from the pack of mindless souls,
turn back and your hand he will hold.
Our life is a only a journey not an end,
one small chapter in this endless book my friend.
