Thy Faith In Me... Poem by RIC BASTASA

...and there
the danger lies,

when you cannot
believe in me when
i cannot too believe
in myself anymore,

i happened. I am
glad, i did not pack
up and leave,

i keep myself
even in my own disbelief,
as you left me
for another, i still keep

myself, even if i cannot
believe in me
anymore, ....

i do not have any
other, if i lose myself,
i have nothing.

this is faith.
To keep this self,
in its lowest ebb.
