I am


So long as it took to realize it
But never believe it was so
But always understanding it could be.
The thing that will always
Exist will
Always exist and

Fight til the end and
Be sure to stick it.
Some ask if its will
Is as it says its so.
They can know it always
Is as it will be.

One question may be
How do we know it is and
How do we know it always
Will be? It
says have faith, so
we trust it will.

So trust its will
And strive to be
As it asks so
You will flourish and
Reveal the kingdom It
prepares for you always.

Something to remember always
Is it will
Not always seem as it
Should be.
Life will be hard and
One will not desire to live so.

Think about it often so
You never forget. Always
Live fruitfully and
According to its will.
When you do, you will be
New and like it.

And so
It will
Always be


This is a Sestina poem. It is a highly structured poem. Each stanza contains six lines. There are the same six words at the end of each line in every stanza, but in different orders so that it creates a retrograde cross. It's actually quite cool.
