Of What is Faith?

Of what is faith?

Something of which to believe in

Cause I believe it to be there

Not just what I imagine

 

Whether or not

Seen with my eyes

Or touched by hand

My heart can sense its size

 

My inner being

Dictates my own truth

Some call it a “gut feeling”

Usually I feel it too

 

In my heart and soul

I’ll feel either wrong or right

Directing my deep-down faith

To see the truth in light

 

Not just from teachings

But of an inner voice

Telling me that which feels real

And my faith has a choice

 

Of anything I believe in

Or I believe not

Ask myself why

 In the mirror the answer I got

 

Of many things

I’m a faithful man

But I decide only for me

And there I’ll make my stand
