If my heart could grow

You could have seen its seed

Augmenting

Pushing through the light

Ready to produce fruits.

 

If my heart could talk

You could have felt the unfelt;

The love, the fear, the insecurities, the hope, the anguish, the frustrations.

 

If my heart could show

You could have seen the unseen;

The melting, the warming, the bleeding, the pounding, the hoping, the dying.

 

If my heart could open

You wouldn’t believe its treasure,

the mysteries that none could tell.

You could have been amazed

and praise God for creating such a mysterious being like me.
