Challenge This Heart Poem by James Darwin Smith II

Challenge this heart
Look within its worth
Travel deeply within its dreams
Know it for all it truly is



Never take this heart for granted
Even if testing it out
Claim its beats as your own
Even if it's a second of your time
You will know more of what I am all about



Within me I am much more
Test these feelings as much as you can
Pain them to see if they get hurt
I will show you how strong I really am



Know me for who I truly am
How I live is more than you know
So much inner substance to offer
So many miles travelled within
I will show you every everywhere where I have roamed


For you, my inner feelings will be exposed
Getting well away from this comfort zone
Being as brave as I can in each situation
Becoming even stronger as I go on



Challenge this heart
Take it to the brink of its core
There is so much it has to offer
It is up to you to find out even more



This heart is more stronger much stronger
Than anyone has ever tested it before!



Challenge this heart
Then it will be all for your taking



Capture this heart
And I will try to win yours



Will you accept me for who I am?


Yet, with me within me there is way more!
More than any quick look has ever looked before



Challenge this heart!
