Believe
A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce
What does your
spirit say to me
I ponder
as we banter about
yet I wonder
what it is beneath
that stare
that wanders there-
begging to be freed
silenced all your life
something that not
even you believe in
wholely-
yet I can see it
animate you
dance within your eyes
when you speak
hear it in the soft
whispers that you keep
while you sleep.
What does your
spirit say to me?
It says believe
in yourself,
in me,
in humanity
as we walk a
new path
sometimes arm in arm
sometimes far apart
yet always
your spirit
says 'Believe'
in your children
and mine
their smiles we find
divine-
Believe.

Beautiful, Siddartha. :)
You've created a wonderful poem here, full of faith, passion, and companionship.
My favorite lines:
"yet I can see it
animate you
dance within your eyes
when you speak
hear it in the soft
whispers that you keep
while you sleep."
Bravo! :D
