Faith

I promised I'd be with you 'til the end;
Whatever happened, and whenever, I
Would be with you until the day you'd die.
Whatever life or death might choose to send,
Even however you might choose to spend
The time you had, I would be with you. My
Promise is unshaken. I don't lie.
I will not leave you now. I am your friend.
But do not tempt me. Do not make me feel
As if I were a piece of furniture,
A chair whose presence could be counted on
Because it cannot leave. My faith is real,
But you must treat it more as if it were
A precious thing, or else it will might be gone.
