Faith

 On the darkest night 

When thoughts fight a battle of no might, 

Wrapped in an embrace 

You hold me tight.

You are a familiar feeling, of home, 

Yet at times suffocating me alive, 

Every day I struggle to survive.

You are yet the muse to my words, 

The only companion through life;

I find you in songs, 

And everywhere around, 

Failed relationships, toxic people, broken hearts, 

But do you know why I hold you so dear?

Love you like one very near? 

Because you choose to stay 

In your own little way 

While everyone else just 

Drifts away.
