Real love

If your love is real

Purely and simply

I am in heaven

And maybe the purpose of heaven

Is to open our eyes

To the hell we have lived in before

A place created in our minds and hearts

Where fear and past pain

Dominates everything

Eclipsing the view we were born with

Of grace and wide open spaces

Where freedom could dwell

Where as before

We only knew a succession of locked rooms

Or dudgeons containing ghosts

But if then love swept in

Eclipsing everything

Radically changing our perception

How could it not be

That we could find our piece of heaven

A place where hearts connect

And all our worst fears and imaginings are met with love

Dissolved in the light of a love

So freely given

That asks nothing

But to love
