The Heart’s Unflinching Compass
The world unfolds, a tapestry of strife,
Where reason fades, and self-centred souls thrive.
Forgive them still, though logic may not bend,
Kindness blooms, where empathy transcends.
Good deeds may bloom, yet whispers may arise,
Of hidden gains and self-serving guise.
Be kind, my friend, let virtue be your guide,
Though doubt may linger, and judgment may reside.
Success may dawn, yet envy casts its shade,
False friends may gather, and actual foes are made.
Succeed with grace.
Let purpose be your crown,
Ignore the whispers.
Let your spirit resound.
Honesty’s voice may meet with scornful eyes,
Where trust is broken and deceit disguised.
Speak true, my soul, let the truth be your defence,
Though honesty may bring a bitter recompense.
Years spent in the building may crumble in a night,
By hands unseen, extinguished is the light.
Build on my heart, with courage and with grace,
For in the face of loss, a stronger soul takes place.
Serenity found may stir a jealous ire,
While happiness blooms, a venomous desire.
Be happy still.
Let joy be your embrace,
For peace within transcends all time and space.
The good you sow may fade from memory’s hold,
Forgotten kindness, a story left untold.
Do good, my friend, let compassion be your creed,
For in the depths of giving, a soul is truly freed.
Give all you have, the world may not suffice,
Your most splendid gifts may meet with cold demise.
Give all you are.
Let love be your release,
For, in the end, it lies between you and peace.
This journey’s path between yourself and God,
A sacred space where only truth has trod.
Let not the world’s acclaim, nor its disdain,
Disturb the quiet peace that dwells within.
I hope this poetic interpretation resonates with you!
