Faith

Faith

A single action causes
The downfall of my world.
That single fleeting moment
Has left my soul so cold.

She wants you as we dream
Though her hand is placed in mine.
Her body is warm beside me
But her mind has crossed the line.

I know that she still loves me
But your heart calls to hers.
And though it’s me who lies here
It’s your touch that stirs.

I look at her and wonder
What it is that I did wrong.
Then I start to realise
I’ve been right all along.

It seems that at a glance
My soul is free of blame.
But even I’ve been caught out
Playing life’s little game.


The union of two kindred spirits
Is something I cannot match.
And because of the love we share
My tears, I know she’ll catch.
