The Heart of Man

by Theheartofman

i The heart of man is desperate and true it's been broken and hurt, so no light can see through The heart of man is passionate and strong bitterness and resentments, it seeps in all day long now it can longer sing it's lovely song The heart of man is soft and contrite It tries to forgive, but has to protects it’s self from the fight The heart of man is trusting and strong it gets rejected and lied to all day long The heart of man is helpful and kind although it doesn't get nurtured or cared for all of the time The heart of man is sensitive and wise we're told to toughen up, there's no need to cry, otherwise you won't win the prize The heart of man is so simple and true we make love so complicated we don't know what to do ii The heart of man is such a beautiful thing when it's open it's able to do amazing things Let's make it our mission, our passion, our truth, to care for each others hearts before it no longer has any use Let's get out of our heads and into our hearts before we no longer know how to love each other, before we don't even know where to start Let's take each other hand in hand before   we completely reject each other and no longer can Let's truly love one another as we're taught before the enemy consumes the whole lot Let's love and accept each other for who we are lest we all run away afar Next time, you pass a stranger on the street, greet them with a smile and a nod At first they might find it little strange, a little odd, before long it will reach the whole pod Next time you meet your family or a friend, greet them with a kiss and a shake of the hand At first they may reject it, before long it will be a demand!!!!!

Notes

I'm open to any suggestions as to how I could structure this poem better.

A few years ago i was in a really deep meditation, a couple days after a workshop I went to, I was thinking and meditating about unconditional love. Then i started hearing the tune in my head. So i decided to write it down. I wrote it in about 2 or 3 hrs.... I only edited it when I joined this poetry group. I've discovered I enjoy writing poetry. I've never taken any poetry classes or anything. I wasn't very good in English class when in school
