Faith To Love

Did I promise to love you?
Did I let you go?
Were there words I knew?
Did I not hold?

Is it just me… alone?
Are you not a part to play?
Of things we wouldn’t have known
If only words are enough to say…

And there you go… or did I?
Doesn’t seem to have yet a fulfillment end
Isn’t it love we chose to defy?
To achieve yet of loneliness to befriend

Yet… we never did say goodbye
Simply to let fade to admit to be…
Much of humanities’ faith we deny
Of ourselves… what is it we could never see?

Did I promise to love you?
Yet I am to let you go
Words often too late, too few
Perhaps of love yet we behold
