Faith

by East Poetry   May 3, 2012


Faith - the power of our mind
to believe if something's true.
In a person, place or thing
that's never seen by you.

A knowing buried deep inside
your heart of hearts so dear.
A belief safe guarded by your soul
that will never disappear.

It's yours alone to keep and hold,
to cherish your life through.
How much you wield, a simple choice,
with yours... what will you do?

For what if like a diamond,
faiths pure existence is so rare.
To find Faith with such purity,
Only the wisest man would dare.

As few can harness such a power
and master its true creed.
Where those that have, still wielded less,
than a tiny mustard seed.

In rem-like stillness, I challenge you thus,
to drink from faiths pure fountain.
And one day, like prophets of ore,
you too ...may move a mountain.

So, how do we increase our faith
Without “the option to simply see”?
Ask in faith, on your knees
For HIM to share His mysteries.

    This is so beautiful! You never know where faith can take, even when you know that it can defy the impossible.

    I agree with Fly High, stunning and just amazing. Your words took my breath away. :)
    Only thing I had a problem with the "ur" kind took a small luster from the poem. :( But that's just me, I rather don't like shortening of words like that.

    Still, 5/5 :)
