O faith to have but not believe in you—
to trust our love’s relationship that, had
I cause to pause all knowledge mine thereof,
you’d nonetheless committed pull to me,
encourage my return to you—by faith
so benedight might I, delighted, claim
that Faith as noun – as person – far exceeds
what I’ve believed: my thoughts like bended reeds—
phragmites weak beneath the redwing flame
of blackbird songbird colonies. By faith
so alien, yet also centrally
disclosed within my very potence, Love
excels in wondered trust and urgent mad
pursuit of fearless honesty for you.
