One doesn’t wait for them to be found;
one doesn’t wait for them to be earned
Your hell is here, your heaven is around;
and so far this is all that I have learned
Read more: Your Hell is here; your heaven is around
The day of judgment comes every day;
apocalypse invisible, but it is all around us
You have to see beyond your foolish way;
and no need to make a big damn fuss
Your heaven exists in the smile and admiration;
the ones that you love and fondly cherish
Your hell resides in the jealousy damnation;
foes, you would like to see gone and perish
Your heaven is the warmth of satisfaction;
glowing in your forgiving and kind heart
Your hell is the freezing regret and inaction;
that has been always there since the very start
Your heaven is the affection that you always get;
dispense to those few who merit and deserve
Your hell is the hatred that you sometimes beget;
the one which burns and the one you serve
Your heaven is all the troubles you ever defeat;
dilemmas and conflicts that you always solve
Your hell is the troubles that bind your feet;
acid that dissolves your steely resolve
Your heaven is the character that you build;
slowly and gradually, over a period of time
Your hell is the overwhelming wave of guilt;
that brings in the filth, stains, and the grime
Your heaven is the company of loving friends;
the company that keeps you happy and warm
Your hell is a long winter night that never ends;
loneliness – a devastatingly silent snowstorm
One doesn’t wait for them to be found
One doesn’t wait for them to be earned
Your hell is here, your heaven is around;
and so far this is all that I have learned
