Holding On to Dear Faith
By Apolinario Villalobos
Tears may fall in anguish
Hearts may break in sorrow
Dignity may be lost in hunger
But always, despite all these –
Something is left of our faith.
Questions may be mumbled
Doubts may raise eyebrows
Whimpers may lessen the pain
Despair may block our sight
But always, faith gives us light!
