I’ve been hard and I’ve been soft My heart has known love And my heart has known disgust I’ve been strong and I’ve been weak My heart has known hope And my heart has known despair I’ve been warm and I’ve been cold My heart has known passion And my heart has known apathy From the center of my heart Where only God can see or know There lives a woman who loves Beyond her yearning dreams, completely I’ve been happy and I’ve been sad My heart has known pleasure And my heart has known sorrow I’ve been spontaneous and I’ve been withdrawn My heart has known freedom And my heart has known inhibition I’ve been thankful and I’ve been ungrateful My heart has known appreciation And my heart has known ingratitude From the depths of my heart There love lives and opens the door To faith that fills my life with inspiration For feelings that create true satisfaction I’ve been confident and I’ve been insecure My heart has known positive assurance And my heart has known apprehension I’ve been a silent light and I’ve been noisy My heart has known soundless joy And my heart has known thunderous grief I’ve been concerned and I’ve been untroubled My heart has known reflective worry And my heart has known how to be carefree From the depths of my heart There love arouses my hope to know Kindness that prays and praises the One Who makes my heart full beyond thought From the depths of my heart Where kindness awakens my best Thrilling tones and hues of warmth Awaken my affection of Deity, God The ruler of my life, the One who knows The depths of my heart and soul And who gives me the opportunity to listen To the whisper of His breath in my love From my heart… I know hope From my heart… I know faith From my heart… I know grace From my heart… I know love From my heart… I know Him The One who answers from above With the strongest and sweetest agape Love!

Who has not experienced ups and downs? I walked the path of love and torture like you. But one day I discovered that besides all I needed prayer as you said with thankfulness and prayers. Now I remind myself that I need prayer everyday. ~~

Amazing how you can create such meaningful verses almost effortlessly--a gift you have of poetic expression, Gina. Assonance of your poem resonates from every word and the juxtaposition of emotions enhances its rhythm throughout. I am saving this gem in my FAVES.
