Heaven
Take me to a place where thoughts taste like sounds
Where faith feels and passion runs
Where touch can swim and energy flow
Where reasons don’t demand, season’s blossom and suns rise
Where water walks and life don’t pass you by, but instead waits patiently
Where people’s attention spans decades
Allow me to be more, so much more
Where my words are more than food for thought, but rather thoughts that provide food
Where I can be more than a poet
And what I say more than words
Where what I do is more than actions
Where revolution is daily and change is voluntary
Where red lights don’t stop traffic, but instead influence all to go respectfully
Creating infinite synergy
Take me to a place where we all prosper normally
Growing hereditarily, moving toward unity
Soon to be so much more than just inspiring
I want to breathe change and walk freedom
To sing strength and run like the wind
Where I can bleed passion and birth ideas that grow to be the future
Where suits are more than clothes or court cases
But represent a race of people all created equal
Where color is no boundary, where money no discriminating factor
Where like actors we are all just waiting to receive our academy award
Their time in the lime light, but this spectrum touches all of us leaving out no one
That light too bright to be held captive
I want to be there where the stairs lead upward and onward and life never ends
Where goodness and peace transcend and everyone is your friend
It’s too bad the only way to get there is at this life’s end
Heaven
