Eternity

Eternity 
 We lose the grip then begin to double dip
 The heart is the fuel to add the fire with desire
 A sought after plan with a remedy in mind
 An excursion torn between the battle for good & evil
 Some are being caught up right in the middle
 Eternity my friend is a very long time we climb
 A passive orientation to those who once could see yet now their blind
 No one for certain sir wants to be left behind
 With chains on our feet people dance to the beat
 The heart is an opened door willing to explore
 A simple time with simple tastes getting caught up as before
 Nature beckons it's wallowing cry toward asunder
 Shaken by the wind we so often will pretend
 A free gift to those willing to accept it's message don't forget
 We pass through this life only once without a second chance
 One must be willing to take part in the dance
 In long lines vested through a variation in a dream
 People scream for attention within their ardent claims
 A challenge to be free is a question of time
 To think of this earthly bliss of a time well spent in thought
 We clap our hands into the wind that can't be bought
 As a tree grows it flows through a sorted peril
 Climb to the highest ring on a ladder amidst the chatter
 Look to the sun to help you get by never to a substance that will get you high
 You have a choice with eternity either heaven or hell
 There is a much better story in which to tell
