Heaven

It takes a lifetime to reach the gates of heaven
The path is rocky and made of thorns
We see the light we cannot reach
But, still we want others to preach 

Haven is beauty, and full of love
Full of desire, passion, and hope
Haven is mystic and full of dreams
To reach the gates of heaven
It’s not easy as it seams

We on this earth are full of sin
We search, we stumble, we rise to belong
Haven is mystery, greatness, and grace
Haven is paradise a beautiful place.
