Poetry Prompt by Sahil Patel — day 14 — Faith

faith is turning around and away
from what’s wrong or harmful, and
doing what’s right

faith may be looking up to the sky
searching for help or searching
within

faith is praying to the stars for your
wishes to come true

for light to reach you and all around
the world

bringing love to every moment and
kindness because you believe and know
it heals

trust has much to do with faith as well
as patience and not giving up

having a brave heart brings faith to
the surface

faith is always tested and retested,
otherwise we would never learn to
cope

believing in ourselves and others is
faith and giving support, healing,
filling our needs, and helping others

wrapped up in love and goodness
is faith

when we can be loyal and faithful

faith shows us how to fail and live
again

faith needs to have all the parts of
goodness, because like love, sometimes
it is not enough

light resides in the center of faith
and goodness

whether it’s faith or another part of
our goodness, it always must come
from the right place and not be
wrongly motivated

such is faith when we have acceptance
in our hearts, forgiveness, and breathe
into our souls.

Thanks for reading. Wishing everyone faith in all its goodness and light.
