faith

faith

A Poem by Emily Mcpherson

this darkness i feel deep inside
this pain i feel in my heart
this stress i feel in my body
when will it fade?
why do i feel this way
how do i fix it
i no longer wish to walk in the shadows
i want to find the light
but this room i seem to be trapped in has no doors or windows
i scream out for someone to help
but no one hears me
i fall down to my knees
i am crying but no one knows i am there
then i see something move closer to me
whatever it is gives off such a warm safe glow
as it comes closer i can make out a shape of a man
" who are you? where did you come from?"
i ask the man
" i am always with you my child"
he tells me 
if he is always with me how come i never seen him before
and as if he knew what i was thinking
he told me this
"i am with you in times of greatness and in times of great dispear."
how is that when i have never seen this man before?
" the reason you see me now is because you need me so much right now. hold on to your faith my child and know i am always there to hold you close
to give you the warmth you need.
the light you look for will always be there as long as you have faith in me"
i look up at this man with tears in my eyes and see him smile
i wake up in my bed and know who the man is
i smile and feel the warmth cover me
the pain, stress, and darkness start to fade
i can take on the day 
because GOD has shown me all i need is to have
FAITH
