Sky Pier

What if the stairway to heaven

Was a weathered and tattered road

Elevated and broken

Steady and upward sloping

Covered in graffiti and kissing the sky

Accentuating the chasm

Demanding arms wide open

And a leap of faith as grand as the void

Stand steady in fear of height

In wonder of what has been

And all that transcends our sight

Kiss the sky and leap with all your might

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” –Hebrews 11:1

Hope

Hope

She hangs on

Until tomorrow

Hope is assured

Of time borrowed

Hope

Is exacted in faith

That tomorrow

Will relinquish

Its sorrow

“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”  –Hebrews 11:6
