Definitions of a Good Heart


Did a good heart get you far

As simple as it seems

Did a good mom get you sharp

As simple as her seams

 

Did a good heart feed your soul

Or did it starve you to death

Did a good heart read your role

Or did it act up against

 

Did a good heart give you hope

As easy as it eased

Did a good heart give you dope

As ceasing as it ceasesd

 

Did a good heart get you far

As daunting as it dares

Did a good woman get your heart

As ferocious as she stares

 

Did a good heart get you laid

Or did it counter attack

Did a good job get you paid

Or did a child end that

 

Did a good heart get you joy

Or is joy what you gave

Did a good life get you full

Or is it empty as your grave
