=A Moment of Faith=

If I leave you for a moment
And many moments after,
If I still do not return,
Do not wait for me forever.

For I'll be gone away somewhere,
Somewhere away from here.
Far from every earthly care,
Far from hope and fear:

That you will remember...
That I will forget...
Does it matter?
Do not regret.

It might have never ended
Had I kept my faith throughout.
But what is faith unanswered?
The answer lies without.

Have I not faith enough
To leave you for a moment?
A moment to create a gulf
For moment after moment.
