My Own Heart

In my own heart
I will always be true,
I will look in the mirror
And never be blue...

In my own heart
The sun will shine,
Making brighter days
I know I'll be fine...

In my own heart
I am someone,
I am someone who's free
Free until kingdom come...

In my own heart
I will say I can,
Even when it's raining
And there's no band...

In my own heart
I won't boast my name,
Even if I am blessed
To become rich with fame...

In my own heart
I will continue to love,
Continue to share
As he does from above...

Our actions both noble and ignoble begin from the heart, and if we start our journey to goodness and success from our heart, we will reach our destination with mirth. Thank you for the lovely piece, Mary. Welcome to Poetrysoup!
