Faith
Men ask what I believe. I cannot say.Faith is the other self of deep desire.
Faith is a flood which sweeps all forms away,—
The flaming outrush of an inward fire.
Men ask what I believe. I cannot guess.
I love you with my heart, my mind, my soul.
This is my creed. What more can I confess?
Love baffles speech, and breaks from thought's control.
Men ask if I am happy? Have I found
Safe anchorage in life's uncharted sea?
Nay, I am on a voyage. I am bound
For seas and lands unknown. I wander free.
I find life's treasure in this endless quest,
And peace of mind in infinite unrest.
