A Sonnet

Because You Believed

by Susanjohn



How painful echos vibrate deep within ...
a quiet desperation, once consumed.
Erstwhile, doubts linger so restless, therein;
emergent hope revives a soul foredoomed.

T'was neither charity nor false pretense,
whose urging motivates views shift in stride.
Devotion shatters past secured defense ...
discerning insights ~ faithful worthy guide.

Now, shan't deny your priceless gifts, bestow;
in humble gratitude these truths, embrace.
A wounded spirit buries dreams below ...
till parting clouds unveil ~ redeeming Grace.

Impassioned visions finally achieved,
heart set ablaze, because you first believed.
