The Foundation of Wealth ~ original poetry

I’ve lived in the grave
of misery’s despair
in desperation’s quest
seeking lands
that lie in vast fields--
of destinies
not meant for mine

in due time, to find
upon discovery’s vision
the fountain of wealth
residing within
within the beating heart
led to destiny’s door
aligned in heart and mind

manifested in the lands
cultivated in times
unknown,
to the human eye
but felt,
in the human heart

for without knocking
on doors not meant for you
you will never know
the wealth you hold
inside your beating heart
inside your beating heart
resides,

the fountains of wealth
you seek to be.
only look,
and you shall not see
but feel,
and all you will be.
