Image for the poem faith

faith

 
Little faith says I can do anything
suspicious doubt worries
my heart faulters but I stand my ground

Tiny need won't get the best of me
carnal understanding, the body remembers
what it feels like to be impenetrable

my frailty shows, and I fear
still legs shaking, I keep walking
ferocious desire it's on my mind

Some say it's easy
My brain synapses say it's not
It knows one thing
The road to devastation is easier

walking into the sunlit reality
where ever flaw shows daunting
Shrinking violet I am

stuttering the words I'm an addict
knowing it will always be true
Fickle understanding I still argue it was good for me
This kind of thinking trips me up

so I strangle it and stay clean
