Daily Prompt: Assay (Heart of Gold)

Some have said I have a heart of gold.

Some have said I am much more.

But I’d ask you, do you believe?

Or would you assay, just to be sure?

Do you take my word as bond?

Or is that a leap of faith too far?

Do you believe my words of love?

I hope you do for they’re from that heart.
