Faith
Faith is a concept, it's something that doesn't come by being stepped on. Faith isn't a physical form it's something that can be ignored, But everyone sends faith instead of actual help. No one knows where faith came from in history, Yet everyone still believes, Believes in the faith they are taught or born into. People who want to get rid of one addiction only for another one to come, Faith is fear of the unknown and the rejected. People need faith in order to guide them through their lives, I had faith once but then I was born and I had to lose that faith only to reintroduce myself to when I learned you have to be able to have faith in yourself. Losing faith in yourself will leave you weak to those who have the worse intentions.
Faith is also a work out, Because faith will have you running toward the light, Afraid of the consequences that might entail due to the real wrath you have inside you, One on their knees and the other preaching as tears flow down their face's, The cries of the powerless like the light bill hasn't been paid, The candles are lit but not for a birthday. ( I hope you have faith) as if that takes the weight away, Because like being a treadmill with faith you can get tired from running in the same space. Those who lost faith have been silenced, They don't need nor kneel to anyone who has a one set mind. I once had faith in humanity but it's slowly demining, Faith however how small will always be a double edged sword!
You can have faith that the world will one day be at peace, That statement can also be used as a way to want to end all human life, Or to want the world to shut the hell up and just be nice to each other, We are here and we are going to make our own faith, Unfortunately that might seem selfish to some but that's also every person on the planet. So faith what is it? Where is is it? Faith is a rose in the snow, Faith is small memory that makes you smile. Faith is a child's laughter, Faith is waking up late but still on time, Faith is warm hand on a cold day, Faith is a stranger giving up their seat so you don't have to stand, Faith is a recipe passed down from grandma that still has her heart in the pan, Faith is the deep breath you take in the morning.
Faith is the hug you get from a warm blanket, More importantly the faith you carry in your mind a delusion, It's they faith in your heart that'll lead you to the faith of independency.
