The Merit of the Soul

When you empty out your Handfuls of time and drink From the flask of forever. You have made it home, For Heaven is earned, not given!

A great free verse, dear Raul. You might've discovered immortality when you drank from the flask of forever...

Very nice way to express, Heaven is earned, not given. The the things earned will be sweet and fresh that earned will be stale, Raul
