LOOK

Look not with thoughts that cloud your brain
That logic and truth is lost,
The sun will shine or it will rain;
Either way there’ll be a cost.
Follow the trail you like the best,
But look carefully through the dust,
For oft deceit hides behind the jest,
And unknown scenes you cannot trust.
Ask yourself why you believe,
In something you fear to doubt,
Why people weep in pain and grieve,
When a final light goes out.
Perhaps it’s what we don’t receive,
That faith is all about.
