Commit Your Heart

Commit Your Heart: A Journey of Courage, Love, and Purpose

By COUPublished 12 months ago 3 min read



Commit Your Heart

Commit your heart to the open road,
To paths untaken, where dreams explode.
Leave behind what chains you still,
Let freedom shape your iron will.

The journey calls, a whisper clear,
To shed your doubts, release your fear.
The first step forward, though fraught with pain,
Is where you'll find what you hope to gain.

Commit your heart to the rising sun,
To battles fought and victories won.
For life is fleeting, a fragile spark,
But bold pursuits ignite the dark.

The past may linger, its shadow deep,
Its claws may scratch, its whispers creep.
But the weight it bears, though hard to part,
Will weaken once you commit your heart.

To love, to loss, to fragile ties,
To tears that blur your weary eyes.
In every crack, the light gets through,
The wounds you bear will strengthen you.

Commit your heart to the stormy seas,
To waves that crash with deafening pleas.
The tides may toss, the winds may roar,
But courage grows when you reach the shore.

To risk is life, to fall is grace,
To find your footing in time's embrace.
Each stumble writes a tale anew,
Each scar a badge of what is true.

Commit your heart to the fleeting hour,
To fleeting joys that hold their power.
A child's laughter, a bird's soft song,
The fleeting moments where you belong.

To hold back now is to let life fade,
A tapestry left incomplete, unmade.
The threads of love, of joy, of strife,
Weave together the fabric of life.

Commit your heart to the present flame,
Let passion burn, forget the shame.
For every ember holds the key
To a future shaped by destiny.

In love, give all; hold nothing back,
For love demands no careful track.
It thrives on trust, on leaps of faith,
On moments shared, no time to waste.

Commit your heart to the endless climb,
To mountains steep, to fleeting time.
Each peak ascended brings clearer skies,
Each effort made, a priceless prize.

The world is vast, its beauty rare,
Its truths untold, beyond compare.
But to see its depths, to know its art,
You must begin—commit your heart.

Commit your heart to the quiet nights,
To the moon’s glow, to distant lights.
The stars remind of dreams once sown,
Of seeds that grew when courage was shown.

Through winter’s chill and summer’s heat,
Through trials hard and triumphs sweet,
The steadfast soul will find its place,
The weary heart will know its grace.

Commit your heart to the rhythm of time,
To moments fleeting, so sublime.
For in each breath, a life unfolds,
In each heartbeat, a story told.

What holds you back, what keeps you still?
A fear to climb the daunting hill?
The greatest feats demand the start,
So take the leap—commit your heart.

Commit your heart to the call within,
To the fire burning beneath your skin.
To purpose grand, to visions bold,
To dreams more precious than finest gold.

No map will guide, no star will steer,
But faith will light the path you near.
And as you walk, the world will shift,
Revealing treasures, love’s greatest gift.

Commit your heart to a life well-lived,
To moments shared, to all you give.
For in the end, it’s not the years,
But love and joy that conquer fears.

Commit your heart, let nothing sway,
The doubts and darkness fall away.
For every step, though hard to start,
Leads to freedom—so commit your heart.

Commit your heart to what you believe,
Even when shadows loom and deceive.
For truth is found where courage stays,
Where every dawn renews your days.

Commit your heart to the world’s embrace,
To touch the lives that cross your face.
For in each soul, a light shines bright,
And in their glow, you’ll find your sight.

Commit your heart to the call of love,
To the silent whispers, the skies above.
To healing, to kindness, to joy unspoken,
For in such moments, hearts are broken open.

Commit your heart, though it may break,
For love is worth the risk you take.
In every tear, in every scar,
You’ll find the strength to reach afar.

Commit your heart, and you will find,
The treasures waiting, undefined.
For life’s true worth is found in this—
In living fully, in love’s sweet kiss.
