What Can I Not Live Without?


What can I not live without? I look around in search of an answer

The people who help save lives from cancer?

Well doctors are necessary, but have not always been around.

A disturbance occurs and I look for the source of the sound.

Of course! My phone. I wouldn’t be able to live without it.

It’s just a handheld device is it really my life line? Doubt it.

What keeps me going day to day?

Keeps me hopeful when skies are grey?

It occurred to me all of a sudden

As if I had asked for the solution at the touch of a button

Faith is what I need to survive

Faith in anything really just something to help me thrive
