Never Lost Belief in Myself – Written Sunday 28th March 2004 (Aged 29)

Never Lost Belief in Myself

i have never lost belief in myself
and i have never been so unsure
that i do not know who i am
occasionally, i have lost the way
but a lack of direction,
it not a lack of something to say
now, this moment,
it should be a resurrection
because i fighting fit for a new day
i have only lost belief in others
and then, perhaps, their belief in me
i have only ever felt the cut of the wind
amongst the waves of my angry sea
and, i have been a pilot without cause
a detainee,
with no get out clause
now is the new and now is where i stand
because no matter what others do,
when it come to belief, i do understand
