Faith

I can admit

I believed

Put all my hope

Dreams

Faith

Into it

And yet 

Time after time

After time

I ended up with regret

But I was determined 

Not to give up

But then this last time

It nearly knocked 

The wind out of me

Almost hardened my heart

Caused me grief

And yet because God

Loved me

Saw the

Determination

Perseverance

He held me 

In his arms

Whispered gently

"Hold on my child

Your time is coming"

And yet

After all the

Disappointment

Regret

My faith

In love

Has not waivered

I have not given up

That it still exist

Can be as innocent

As a new born's 

First breath

And as pure as

Fresh fallen snow

And now

I am closer to whole

Not broken

Sadden

Confused

Regretful

Angry

Instead

Optimistic

Excited

Zealous

And most of all

Faithful

For I know

He has not

Forsaken

Me
