I have died-
Seven times but one;
Crushed beneath the weight-
Of pain’s unrelenting
Hammer blows.
Straight right. Left hook.
Right uppercut. Left jab.
Right hook. Left uppercut.
Cheek bones splintered-
Lip leaking blood, Teeth-
Bludgeoned until loose.
Head spinning. Time, space
Distance blending-
Into a confused blur.
Then over-hand right –
And sight mercifully fades-
Into blissful blackness.
I have died–
Seven times but one;
But like a rubber ball
Squashed flat against a hard place,
I rebound seven times,
Reborn.
A Geek's Life 
Now, that's faith!

I love this poem. One must learn to be resilient. The person who cannot flow with life will break.
