Brave

Belief is a war half finished, Draped in all that is dry Yet carrying the waterfall of our tears, Nailing their resolve to the sky. We've hummed well enough to sing corpses alive Guiding our forces lost in the fortress inside Please, Relearn to not fear laying your soul on the grass And live in knowing that with all that has been said, nothing has.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
