My Heart Poem by Keith Foley

My Heart



My heart cries out for the world in need,
taken over by lust and greed.

Lost, not knowing where to turn,
while watching the morals of man slash and burn.

Where can I go to find peace and love,
wishing to fly away on the wings of a dove.

I know this flight will never take place,
that's what concerns me about the human race.

Man is there to fulfill his own need,
thus he fills it with lust and greed.

I sit and watch in disbelief,
hoping and praying we find relief.

Relief is temporary when found in man,
we must listen within to seek another's plan.

The plans in place where all can win,
as we give up our intoxication for sin.

Once we pass the ways of mortals,
we arrive into spiritual portals.

And there we abound in the master plan,
conceiving what's needed for the salvation of man.
