Finding Faith

Completely Lost
Before being found

Strayed to far
before coming back

Messed Everything up
Before getting on track

were extremely late
to find yourself on time

Locked Everything out
Just to open the door

Learn to love
and cast away hate

Feeling completely separate
before feeling like one.

Lost all belief
before finding your faith

    I always get this great feeling in my heart when I notice sincerity of faith in Christ in the words of another. This is such a lovely write, and you do have talent to convey the inner unafraid. A few errors [but nothing to do with the gist of the poem] need attention, but to me getting your message across is more important. Frans

    Very lovely cycle, a learning tribute to the humanness in us. Needs a spell check.

    This is a bit of truth, I think for everyone at one time or another...  but, the most important is "finding your faith". That is the key to solving unanswered questions, unsolved problems, never being alone, loving all even those who do not seem to deserve your love, finding yourself when you thought you were lost forever and everything else needed in this life... I love this piece.....   I would not have made it through this life without my faith!  Thanks for sharing!!!!!!!

    Wow this is amazing and so true. I found God when I was lost. I was lost in hate,love,childhood,disillusionment...I seen no one for miles and miles...Then I seen God. Beautiful write!! There is no comfort like the comfort of knowing that you have faith, andthat faith will never fail, and there is nothing that it can't do. Thanks again!

    I really like this poem. It flows well and although it's a bit short, it gets the main point across. The lines
    'Learn to love
    and cast away hate' reminds me of this quote I know. "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return." Excellent poem. It was ended well.

    Heh, I never had much faith, always one to believe in facts and the such, but I still enjoyed this!

    I enjoyed reading this poem the fact that it was about faith is something that is very dear to me. I liked the way you wrote this it was like there were opposites and that worked really really well. It was short, but kept my interest throughout.
