Heaven Be My World

Have they not words to comfort me?
Have they not a voice to whisper?
How are there words to simply be?
When theirs’ is a place to live forever

Have they not wings to fly?
Have they not voices they’ll sing?
Why did we portray them to sigh?
When to Heaven its our death we dream

Have they not love to give?
Have they not voices they’ll share?
Are they there… need we believe?
When its Heavens we weigh on shoulders to bear

Have I not words for them to hear?
Have I not a voice to whisper to them?
Happiness and sadness both sharing a tear
Towards their place... can I believe to send?

I did not hear any words…
I did not hear any voice whisper…
How are my poetries to be heard?
When the world is a Heaven forever
