Heartsong

Do you hear it?

That sweet whispering melody?

The song that guides your very footsteps?

The thing that sheds light,

in even the darkest of nights?

 

Can you hear it?

Do the words not reach you?

Are its cries too soft?

Is its despair not enough,

to pierce through?

 

Will you hear it?

When it comes will you listen?

Will you ignore it and turn away?

Will you believe in it,

when all seems lost?

 

Though your soul may ache,

and your body may wither.

It will guide you

even as you turn your back,

its song shall never falter

 

For it is your heart

it shall never turn its back on you

Though you may do that to it

It is there and it shall always be there,

even though you may wish it not

 

Through darkness and light

Through thick and thin

It will never leave

It will never stop singing,

the song of your heart

So right. We have to keep a song in our heart to get through. No one can take that from us. Nice job. I enjoyed this.
