Well Craig ... this is an interesting one :-)

Faith means a lot of things these days, so the title is slightly intriguing.

1) The word 'heavens' in the first line confirms that this is about religion and the belief that there's a heaven, and therefore a hell etc. ... the description of your stance suggests you're yielding to god in a classic, questioning pose

2) You're hoping here for a god that will show you the way to clear and cleanse your confused (foggy) mind - and the hope of a sign suggests that you're not sure about the existence of god

3) an about turn here as you admit you believe that there is indeed a god but 'he' won't prove 'his' existence with a sign, as you resign yourself to the fact that religion is not black and white

4) a question for the reader now... how do you view the bible? Do you interpret it literally as it is written, or do you take heed only to the bits that make sense to you and fit in with your situation?

5) you believe in miracles but doubt some of what's written in the bible

6) I think this final stanza is where your true message really lies ... you have a belief in a god of some sort, but you do not feel the need to define it or follow the bible to the letter and you're OK with that - comfortable to not have to justify that. But more to the point is that you have 'faith' in yourself , how you live your life and your own morality.

A good 'thinky' poem Craig that I think will resonate with a lot of people. :-) x

Cheers Mark, glad you enjoyed.

Thank you our Em x

Cheers dude

I'm not happy with the 5th stanza and the double use word doubt. I tried it with others but it detracted from the point

Your mind, your heart, your doubt, your belief

YOUR CHOICE.

YOUR LIFE

Take what comfort, inspiration and support from it that you feel is for you.

Screw what everyone else thinks

Faith is a personal thing
