Free Is Kept Faith
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Choose to do what feels right for you.
Keep faith in God to trust you must.
With respect and known identity.
As close as the heart beating in your chest.
And breathe the breath of life.
The life you have been blessed to get.
Be honest to yourself.
Regardless of others,
Addressing their impressions made.
To expect attention to them given.
Your steps to make are not theirs to take.
Choose to do what feels right for you.
Keep faith in God to trust you must.
Even in times that may come difficult to face.
Know your place is to be who you are.
To be who you are.
Yourself.
Honest.
Regardless who it is that may believe,
The respect you have with it done to give...
Should satisfy their approval and acceptance.
Be you and let it be known,
Their judgements to pass...
Are just that.
Judgements to pass as you keep stepping,
Away.
With your life to live,
Looking forward at being better...
Than a yesterday you thought,
Had been your best effort to endeavor!
Free is kept faith.
To keep stored in abundance.
Whenever needed.
