About a good heart.

I am poor but rich of heart
I am lucky that I have fought for what I want.
I am happy that I have found what I search for,
But now that I have it I have to maintain it with me
Some say that my patience will kill me
And at the same time will help me survive.
I have learned that everything has its time
And patience is the first thing you need
And the second is to complete the journey.
If something goes wrong I will fix it
For I am honest to my heart
I have never try to do no wrong.
My father has always said that money isn’t everything
But if u don’t even have a dollar in your pocket
You are not a men.
Everything contradicts itself without you knowing it.
I have a heart full of love and compassion
That’s why I am poor but rich at heart.
