The epitaph of Faith
These words I can not shake
For I am all alone now
Why is it me you chose to forsake
These sounds inside my head
As though they are here right now
Like spiders in my bed
The sweat drips from my brow
The words always astound me
Here lies hope forever more
Come along just wait and see
You will hate what's now in store
The epitaph of Faith
These words we can not shake
For we are all alone now
Please come back for all our sakes
We cannot even fathom
The sorrows we all face
Without Faith here to guide us
Just assume we've lost this race
Let's begin our never ending quest
For a new word to replace
The ones we love and the words we lost
I fear there's no end to our chase
The epitaph of Faith
These words it can not shake
For it is all alone now
When we thought it could not break
One word so mighty, defiant
But we still do not adhere
And the price we're paying so giant
If only we'd opened our ears
It shouted and screamed to listen
The silence forged by true love
Or at least the absence therein
Do we deserve this gentle nudge
The epitaph of Faith
These words I can not shake
For I have stopped to read them
No correcting this mistake
The now fabled words upon me
Here lies Faith once stuck, unglued
Yet the simple things we've learned here
Simply can not be untrue
Although Hope lie here resting
It is time that we are moved
Although Faith lie here resting
We all know what we must do

- Description: Just an idea that popped into my head one day, what if words, ideas, beliefs, all grew old and died like we did? This is my idea of what would be on Faith's (as in hope) tombstone... it reads.......
