Different beliefs, one hope...

I am comfortable putting stock
in something I can’t see.
I can’t hold it in my hands
a show-and-tell trophy
but its effects are evident
even though I can’t pin it down

much like the wind.

You require scientific reasoning
logic, data, proof
fact not feeling
before you commit and risk
joining the masses of individuals
who you believe worship a myth

much like the Greeks.

Before bed, we sit side by side
hearing reports of
war and rising floods.
Though worlds apart,
we both hope for a savior
to rise from these streets.
