Faith

This one is about, if you have ever doubted something, (in the case in which I wrote this, I was doubting a relationship I was in) that there is hope as well, and that your faith in what ever it is will fight the doubt in your mind, but which one will be the winner?
Grim ghost and feelings grown,
Brought and spread through bone,
Infectious and poisonous seeping everywhere,
Its darkness brings death to hope within is despair,
Among dead memories and burnt thoughts scarred,
A bonfire of emotion lays smoldering feelings charred,
A simple light carried by fog filled winds flows,
Shines past wasted land encouraging life which grows,
life creeps from ashes the phoenix flowers rise,
some land again green and now increases in size,
gentle and timid turning flowers seek hopes guiding light,
into which they feel a great power and might,
fires still rage on the torn side lights on the other,
again a fight till death and the winner will smother,
each one is the others opposite and mortal sin,
but who will be victorious who will win?
Which will envelop the soul and prevail?
Which hope or despair will fall and fail?
