FAITH

Seeing the long and winding road
Telling yourself to go on
You are dragging your tired and soiled feet
Sink to the soft sand and withering grass
You fall on your knees
You struggle to get up
Yet your body deny you the strength
Harrow and anguish 
You weep and lament
Looking at the clear blue sky
Blinding light and scorching heat
You summon your core up
You manage to stand on one leg
A smile softly lingers
You gather yourself up
Just to sink back
Face down to the dirt
Kneeling with hands clasp together
You look up once more
And gaze bravely
At the blazing sun
You move your lips for a few
Tears fall down your tainted face
And a word escape your lips
The audible sound of "Amen!"
