Heaven Renamed

Free falling from your will, diving towards a one way kind of thrill, Somehow, with you, sin doesn't seem so unlikely, like finding comparison through contrast, Sainthood tonight, is highly unlikely; You've been the only one who has righted me. I feel safe in turbulence, Anxious in tranquility. My mission isn't complete until I find you in all things. You toppled my dictatorship Feel whole when you hold me, And hollow when you know me. I've been so wrong for denying what cannot be denied, Tonight, let's not make heaven seem a lifetime away. Diving into your eyes and becoming that speck that gives insight. Question all of it Religion is counterfeit Rewrite all of it... Wonder how two people accomplish such an astonishing miracle completely unknowing the first and last of it? Constantly misguided by circumstantial evidence. Yelling from cloud nine listening to our echoes say a little bit further Climbing, neglecting exhilaration. The drug of being wanted, a fall from grace, landing face to face, naked and unashamed, whispering your name, Heaven reframed. This sin, I stake my claim.
