My Heart Realized

I realize now that my greatest blessing and curse Was that I had a big heart A heart so big it allowed the greatest possibilities One that nurtured dreams I knew not but saw light of through the eyes of my dearly beloveds I realize that I have an artistic heart One that wrote poems and songs for the souls that needed feel a sense of recognition It be once or more, by me and those that choose see light in their dim nurtured lives Even if it was just for a dream I realize I had the most empathetic heart That I forgave the ill treatments and neglect I had received excusing them of their downs when I too was down That I watered seeds with water I long walked for before my own for I saw their possibility of a bloom Even if it was just a dream I realize that I had a patient heart One kind and forgiving, One that saw beyond flaws even if mine were the first they saw looking at me I realize I had a heart of a soldier That I would fight for my people and a cause with my outmost all and in fierce loyalty even if it is seen of me when I am gone I realize I had a heart that overflowed with love That I could not give only to my own but to my people That I could never choose to love one in ignorance of their wrong, Instead I would love them to the best I know they know they are wilt And so my story goes …………..
