Watch Over Me
I laid my head on your reassurance.
I crawled into your lap.
Prayed for all the world.
Felt you succour-warm my life-ache.
I trusted you. You rewarded me.
I miss you.
I can no longer lodge my trust.
I have nowhere to lay my head.
I hurt in small hours. Alert for nothing.
I ache loneliness when I am tested.
I haven't you by my side.
Faith - I long for you.
You were dispelled with empty reason.
Sold on lies about lies.
Never once did I consider you separate from religion.
I know now.
I have Faith.
I Laud in your glory.
And I needn't follow a crede designed by a so-called holy committee.
I needn't praise a God I can't know, just to feel your comfort.
I own my own Faith.
Explain you my way.
And I need never feel alone again.

Thank you Juan.
I guess I want to make the distinction between faith - a feeling, energy or emotion - and God - perhaps a being or supernatural entity.
Personally, I think it's all forms of energy. Don't know what you think? But it's all interesting.
And I wanted to make the point that it's personal. So I have my faith, which is my interpretation. And may - probably does - differ from another person's.
Thanks for your comment.??
