I Want To Believe

Flipping through the pages of my book of fear, 
I am learning to accept what´s coming near. 
I want to believe 
that with what I lose, 
I gain much more. 

That´s why I do want to be in peace with my fate, 
although, I face each night and day 
abandoned and scared. 

Still, I´m sure, 
despite my lack of confidence, 
that my journey will be an amazing eye-opening experience. 

Regardless, 
I still can´t decide
if I want to smile or just weep. 
Actually, 
I am kind of stuck
somewhere in between. 

So we´ll see...

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to PS. Meanwhile, I welcome you with the love of God. According to 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." God bless you.
