Life and faith seem to come
with mixed messages
My faith in the hereafter is never wavering
even though in life I have questions
Where is the line to be marked
between children who die and who live
Sometimes just being born
is a death sentence
But that can also be said
for the rest of us
As even now there are angels in heaven
bearing savage weapons
And they have no choice
on whom they are to use them

A real man

kisses his children goodnight

I believe you have taken my thoughts and questions right out of mouth and said it better than I ever could.

Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

"mixed messages" indeed..... they're clear, but only to the one who can see the whole picture, and that's sadly not those of us who are human..... BUT: wonderful, evocative writing. i'm glad i caught this one.
