Believe in Your Heart

by Jill Eisnaugle — Read all 611 poems by Jill Eisnaugle

An autobiographical song about overcoming obstacles and defying the odds to live a better life.

Friday, March 10, 2006


Poem Artwork


 





Verse One

 

The morning arose with mountains of
odds stacked against me
So little the chance that my heart
could ever survive
In spite of it all, I fought and I climbed
up to victory
With the courage to dream and a spirit
that gleams, I’m alive.


 

Verse Two




 

The roadways were long and paved
with an uncertain finish
The curves and the bends seemed
miles from where I belonged
But harboring faith, one blessing was
never diminished
My soul remained true to the paths
that I knew all along.


 

Chorus

 

A rainbow will stretch ‘cross the sky
whenever you want one
The answers for wonder and why can
be found deep within
A new chance is born from the moment
a vision is begun
If you look to the stars and believe in
your heart, you can win.


  

Verse Three




 

The freedom to live is a journey no
distance could measure
The gifts that we hold are so often the
footprints we leave
For locked deep inside is our own
unique box of treasure
Whose key can be found in the goals
that we vow to achieve.


 

Repeat Chorus




 

A rainbow will stretch ‘cross the sky
whenever you want one
The answers for wonder and why can
be found deep within
A new chance is born from the moment
a vision is begun
If you look to the stars and believe in
your heart, you can win.

Not sure if this is a physical heart that was bad or metaphysical. whatever, the cure is still the same for both. And you found it. I just loved these two lines, "The gifts that we hold are so often the / footprints we leave"

This verses are inspired and inspiring. "Believe in Your Heart" -- tough for many -- for me, as well, but true nonetheless: Faith and achievement go hand in hand.

Carmen :-)
