My mind gets the best of me
Order is not a characteristic
Just thoughts of you rising to the moment

I see you and we make eye contact
There is no hesitation as you draw me close to you
Your heart beats through me

I thought heaven did not exist....

I suck the breath from your soul
It engulfs me until I feel whole
And for a short time I feel alive

I thought heaven was for eternity....
