when heaven breaks
by Lindsay Sandersits not that the world
splitting in half
makes no sound,
but real love is violent
relentlessly clutching,
pulling, ripping lies out of truth.
light breaks through in streams,
oh the fate of darkness
in the presence of love-
just as dust under
a raging waterfall.
wake up, wake up!
love cries-
truth is at your side
and life is the ocean
youre sinking in.
its not that the heart
splitting in half
makes no sound.
but real love is violent
relentlessly clutching,
pulling, ripping lies
out of truth.
