A RAY OF HOPE
<p>
I can't see the stars tonight.<br>
Shadowed by silence, <br>
I close my eyes tight.<br>
Pray against the odds of uncertainty <br>
All I want is to believe. <br><br>
Asking so many questions, only wanting one truth<br>
I realize confusion is tainting my youth. <br>
I want to wish upon a star <br>
But the sky, tonight, seems so very far. <br><br>
If "seeing is believing", then what will it take <br>
For those wonders of light to take on some shape?<br>
Like the rain clouds trying so hard to subdue<br>
Tears fall from my lashes- as if overdue. <br><br>
Helpless, I fall to my knees in exhaust<br>
It was then that I realized, <br>
My Faith <br>
Is what's lost.<br><br>
I ask for forgiveness,<br>
Admit I am weak,<br>
Then plead for a path, <br>
To get back on my feet. <br><br>
Guilty, I am, for doubting a known.<br>
Look where it brought me, <br>
In the dark,<br>
Here alone. <br><br>
I soon fell asleep on blades of wet grass,<br>
Hoping the storm soon would pass. <br>
It felt as if time had taken a leap, <br>
Morning came and swept me off of my feet. <br><br>
Breath-taken; <br>
I stared, eyes all aglow; <br>
Not a star, not a cloud; <br>
It was a rainbow.
