Faith
Paul Gonzales Jr 2005 (USA)
Believing in something always involves faith,
But what happens as it starts to fade?
As easily as day fades to night, so too does your hopes and dreams.
You can’t help but watch them sink away with the sun.
What remains of the light, is only a reflection from the night sky, which begs the question,
was there ever faith at all?
