Faith in life
Elaine Souza Xavier 2001 (Hoa)
We walk hand in hand with problems
Problems that can't be neglected,
But easy enough to strive ahead.
Life is full of miseries,
Miseries that leads towards our sorrows,
But faith is an oasis
That can lead us one step
Towards the presence of God.
Faith cannot be seen,
but can be felt from within.
But once looked upon
It can be trusted
That God is with me
And in my presence.
Presence is just a small word,
Saying that God is with me
And near me.
But faith is a powerful word
Where miracles happen
Where the power's are vested in you
Which can change your life
And bring about a door
Full of positivity
Into your heart and soul.
Faith is an existence,
The dependence of survival and death.
But we neglect the power of faith
We reap, cry and darkness prevails
But instead we can pray in the silences of our soul ,
Dwell upon our sins,
And try to regain the power of faith.
