Life is But a Picture


Life is but a picture painted by God

Everything we discover and every step we take

Is another brush stroke in his creation

From every atom to every galaxy there is beauty

For us to find an adventure which is life

 

We only see sadness

Because we've never looked up

We ignore the universe's beauty

Only to disappoint ourselves

 

There is beauty in adventure

But there is reward in sleep

For only in our dreams are our lives so full

 

That is heaven

To be able to dream without worry of waking up

To never "wish" again

Because we have what we want

A place to rest where your soul fits perfectly

And a place where your heart

Will never be empty
