“Keep the Faith Sometimes I'd like to be the type who lives my life without a backward glance – then I would dance through days unburdened, fancy-free. Instead, I'm me. You know, the one who counts the cracks on every wall and then recounts them backwards lest it fall (knowing full well the chances are it will). Still, I have moments when I just let go – then I stop counting cracks and count on faith. You ask if the wall falls? Surprise! It's safe.” — Susan Noyes Anderson
Keep the Faith
Sometimes I'd like to be
the type
who lives my life
without a backward glance –
then I would dance
through days
unburdened, fancy-free.
Instead, I'm me.
You know, the one
who counts the cracks
on every wall
and then recounts them
backwards
lest it fall
(knowing full well
the chances are
it will).
Still, I have moments
when I just let go –
then I stop counting cracks
and count on
faith.
You ask if the wall falls?
Surprise! It's safe.
