The idea of one who is solid in belief –“Poem I Believe”
I still believe
Take the dreams from a child,
And its my dreams you’ll take.
Take the riches from the earth,
And its my land you rape
You can miss-use, confuse me,
Deny and deceive,
Torture or wound me,
But still I believe.
You can throw from the skies,
Some almighty flood.
Shake the ground from beneath me,
Or weaken my blood.
You can miss-use, confuse me,
Deny and deceive,
Torture or wound me,
But still I believe.
Still I Believe
I still believe.
