Heaven Within Us

Your are my forever lover,
shield from darkness that would cover.
You created memories of flower fields
when our love grew great yields.
Naive to the world and loved it true,
I remember the sugarcane, do you?
We wrestled in them and fell asleep,
when we woke we felt alive and rested,
as if we dreamed heaven within our keep.
The greatest gift you gave me
was to be my strength and not a crutch,
to show me new worlds so I may truly see,
and not miss what I had as much.
Thank you is all I can say,
for there's not enough I could do to repay.
So please continue this journey with me now
and protect me from all things dark,
that we may have heaven within us someday...somehow.
