It's Just a Walk

I've sat dismayed
distraught
and empty
Then you rise inside me
and I have to look at who I am
Who I am In You
And
Understand
once again
that my beliefs are not based
on circumstances of life
And it cannot matter how close to my 
heart I am attacked
I will walk in faith
In your light
In the darkness
