Faith and love

A god to believe in and a woman to love Loss of love brings the black side of our mirror A love to live and a faith to begin The thought of losing brings to our hearts but shear horror We can see these but we never seem to win One to live for and one to die for What is seemingly unknown is what our hearts are meant for As I sit back and wait for the lies to unfold The story of this has been foretold Candles of hearts have burnt still Other men who have been betrayed now feel to kill Cold in the wind and alone in the sun Never again shall these souls know of fun Jealousy rich in hatred and turmoil Waiting for past love's to meet present death and what is more The past love now lays deep beneath the soil My heart is ripped torn and sore Hatred of this has never been met before Life not wanting to be lived feels like a choir Paths in life seem so narrow No rules to be told no one to follow Those who live a Life of love and self gratification Nearly fill the souls of every nation Life of faith and hope Barely stretch further than the pope World so cold Our lives being cast from the same mould Never knowing how to breath or what to say Never knowing what may come or who may With our trust in our specie we must lay To all our heart seem to be a place to play Nick Green
