Heaven Is This

once, maybe? just once in a lifetime you touch, brush, less than a touch, maybe just maybe once in a lifetime you are close enough to greatness to almost feel it but you don’t because with greatness true greatness comes humility. the moment is one no one but you recognizes it is a hug from the person who held up that sign what seems now like an eon ago. the sign said help! you could have walked away turned a blind eye but that person without a word is inside your head the voice is clear "it’s the right thing to do" echoes in your mind as if your skull were the Grand Canyon so, you do it. you sacrifice everything and you do it. you help and when your deed is complete when it is all said and done that person hugs you when it is all said and done you hug that person and for that moment you feel less than space between you and it and you know it is greatness but in your humility as quick as you think it it is gone. but you are changed forever more and you know heaven is this no high from any other source will ever be the same because you’ve just stepped up the rungs of your ladder and there is no crash from this high. you are on a new plateau and it is higher and it is lower because with greatness true greatness comes humility.
