Faith

the First step is taken in Faith,
with my hands outstretched, eyes closed and face to the heavens
then silence...
Falling, I begin to wonder if the second may never Come.

If the step is real
Seconds turn to hours and minutes to years waiting to feel the ground
I pray for wings
I seem to fall faster
My life does not flash before my eyes
only my regrets
Opening my eyes I timidly stare at my fate
Is that my destiny?
Believed in the wrong things all my life?
Well, I made my choice. can't turn back
I take comfort knowing I stayed true to myself, my convictions
A burden lifted
And I welcome my fate with open arms
I anticipate the light engulfing my entire being
and my sole finds the second step
