My words may not reach
or caress your heart,
but they come from deep within
for it is only there I make my start
They may not be worldly
or appear profound,
but more heartfelt
will never utter a sound.
It took years and years
to dig that deep,
many a night
upon my pillow I did weep.
But the unknown became familiar
as all fell into place.
Life is much easier now
for my heart is a known space.
When self-love is absent
to others it can not be shown.
I could not give away
what to me was unknown.
In my heart's search
who I am was achieved.
I found that I'm not all bad
as I have long believed.
So this heart of mine
is open and new.
Is your heart ready
for this poem to you?
