As It Is In Heaven


[Anthony David:]
I believe that
Heaven must be like this
Ray of sunshine
Kissed upon your skin
Just say you love me
Make my day go good
Pot of gold at the
End of the rainbow


On earth as it is in heaven is more than just a Bible verse. Just when I was beginning to be fooled into thinking that my life was meant to be mediocre - black and white - a life without color, our eyes met. In that very moment my imagination and my reality fused into one.


Can't tell you nothin you aint already heard
No matter what I say it's nothin but words
Just let me prove to you what I know is real
Let me express to you the way that I feel


On earth, as it is in heaven is more just than a Bible verse. Ever since you entered my heart, I feel as though my description of past loves were exaggerated metaphors for what is my concrete reality with you. I can't find the right combinations of consonants and vowels to describe the urgency that consumes me. Instead, I'll place my heart in your hands so that your soul can feel its rhythm.

[India:]
I believe that
Love is synonymous
With heaven
Such a sensual bliss
The way you touch me
Makes this life so good
A reward at the
End of the long road



On earth, as it is in heaven is more that just a Bible verse. I find myself understanding that this is what people say inspires creative genius - poetry, lyrics, melodies - all a futile attempt to capture in immortality what is intangible - LOVE. I will gladly relive every heartbreak, every romantic deception, every night of overwhelming despair if that path eventually leads me to you.



Can't tell you nothin you aint already heard
No matter what I say it's nothin but words
Just let me prove to you what I know is real
Let me express to you the way that I feel


On earth, as it is in heaven is more than just a Bible verse. I keep finding myself searching books from cover to cover, looking for characters, plots, descriptions... Reaching into the universe to find some being, some kindred spirit that can relate to the ecstasy and ease that I feel when in your presence. But who can adequately describe the indescribable?


[Anthony David:]
Fairy tales can be
Real if you just believe
Go my mind made
I don't plan to leave
Cuz you were meant for me
Simple that may be
Why be complex
Loving you is so easy


On earth, as it is in heaven is more than just a Bible verse. Complicated melodies are now faded notes as our spirits blend into a seamless symphony. I am still in awe by how natural and simple just BEING with you is. My God. What took us so long?
