Love Faith Joy
No one ever knows if love can truly stand the test of time
Can faith alone give sight to the lover blind
Where is joy when trauma comes knocking at my door
The love quickly flees because it doesn’t find me appealing anymore
No amount of disgust or disappointment can shake these fears
It was not known that love could make one cry so many tears
The sun shines brightly….the trees remain still
My knees are buckling under the pressure but I have a strong will
Joy comes in the morning is what they say
The sun rises and I still feel the same sadness that I felt yesterday
I pull myself together so that I can push through the pain
I look up to the heavens and beg God to open up the flood gates and let it rain
As I continue on this path of loneliness I feel a teardrop on my face
I hear a gentle voice encouraging me to keep the faith
Love is not the only thing that’s getting me through
It is faith and joy too
