Why Wait For Heaven ?

Whether it be the external forces of prestige

Or the internal ones of fears unleashed

The way is certainly paved

With a great many heavy stumbling blocks

That would cause even the strongest ones

To sway even by just a degree

And betray the rhythm of their Heart.

But give me a life well lived, any life,

And I’ll show you the influence of the Heart

Lending it’s name and it’s rightful claim

To a riches that even the gods would envy.

So I ask you my fellow traveller,

For whom does your heart beat and sing for ?

In whose name do you dream ?

Whose name reconciles you with life,

When your suffering threathens

To swallow you whole ?

Answer me this truthfully,

And freedom is half-way yours.

But if perchance

You already know the answer,

Then my question for you is,

Why wait for Heaven ?
