PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

how beautiful heaven must be to inhabit,
where pain fades away to purest satisfaction.
what humans will fail to achieve off a tangent,
in haze just as dense as matter it's displaced in.
we'll never achieve our deep need just to grasp it
with physical bodies, our tantalized passion.
misplacing our lust in material habits
with souls real and raw in a world that's just passive,
with holes in our chest we will search for the answer.
what's right and what's left? what's life and what's after?

if pleasure is taste of what's yet to surpass us
and pain is an object, a lesson to master,
then what is our life but a test for the power
we'll wield when we die, if we'll slip or we'll handle?

first we must prove willing to be dismantled
and put back together, perfected, God's mantle.
so help me oh God to accomplish this battle
between love and despair, i'll find you and i'll settle
and i'll be brave and take care to share what i have
cause when i'm off to heaven i wont ever look back
