Faith In Us Poem by Roger Snow

Faith In Us



~~~ Faith in Us ~~~

Is there Nothing,
That I can do or say, ,
to help you,
chase these
damned blues away

and Darling
can we just sit here
maybe just a little while, ,
or at least until, ,
to you, , ,
I can bring back a smile

Yes I know
The Tragedy just seems to grow
and at times, the thought of the Loss
just will not leave you alone, ,
and yes I know
That Sometimes, ,
we just can't seem to let it go
But Child, we can't spend our life
in Moments of Pain from what
we just could not Stop or defend, ,

There's an Angel, , looking over you
and Honey, , She's Fighting hard
to turn your skies Blue for you

In everything we are to one another
in all the love we've to share
and with all this Darkness surrounding
us, , , can you put a little trust in this Brother

I said I love you, with these words
Must there be more
Must I pour my heart out on the Floor

Can't you see the Pain in me
when you're sadness flows out
sinking me like a dark storm at Sea, ,
I LOVE YOU!
can you hear the inflection
or are you apt to filter my
heart with Cynical Rejection, , ,

Your dark Cloud swallows
and in Time,
it takes me down
right along with you, , ,

is there nothing Child
I can say or do, ,
to convince you, , ,

I love You
and that's all we need to believe
when you doubt my Soul's reveal

Gives me the feeling
you'd rather I just leave
is this Child, what you'd
want for me to feel, ,

and so, ,
Yes I know, we've always
tried to move into this, ,
very slow, ,

The time has long ago come
where we can trust,
If by now I haven't vetted
what I feel for you, ,
then nothing left to do, ,
but for me to go, , , ,

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
ok, As the Male of a Relationship, owing to the common attribute of becoming a bit too comfortable in how it's going, we Men forget or ignore the fact that our Lover in her quiet, may begin to have Doubts in how we feel for them and the relationship. We Men, become uncomfortable revealing our Soul to them, She wants to know, she looking future Tense, while we're comfortable in the Moment. The reveal, sets foundation, a point she can work with. At some point, she is going to confront you, Listen to Her, she'll reveal her doubts, She may have begun experiencing some insecurities as well.
Whichever or whatever, Important is to " Listen to Her " she will reveal to you every thing she is unsure of, if she points out a Fault she finds in you, Do NOT defend yourself, that escalates into confrontation, take your lumps and seek instead, how " You " can give her comfort and assurance. If you love Her, really Love Her, then to seek her happiness, should be your upmost desire for Her. Only the Selfish, make attempts to defend themselves. The Song covers an actual event out of my life with a Lady I loved deeper that I thought Possible. She held it in until it exploded. Instinctively, I knew that remaining Calm and listening, absorbing all she vented, was the path, from her statements, I had what I required to improve my ways in order bring as much love and Happiness into our lives as we both would love to attain. Men, Listen to Her, shut up and listen, She's telling you all you'll need to know. it works, be a Man, not a defensive child.

Alright then, Close friend was suffering the soon to be loss of Her Mother, during this period, with head phones on, listening to a Instrumental Guitar Track I'd laid down a few years before, I wrote this out as if it were channeled to me from above. The verse took about as much time to write as it does to read, it just flowed out of me. The Healing results of release are addressed, as well as the love and Empathy I felt for her. Rog' Snow
