Wednesday’s Piece

Faith is the patient seamstress
who mends our torn belief,
who sews the hem of childhood trust
and clips the thread of grief.

Saturday’s Piece

I have bravery to spend on pain
I have faith to wall up fear
I have courage to fight danger when it comes
But there is no defence against loneliness.
