No, heaven&#039;s not a place that you go when you die<br /> It&#039;s that moment in life when you touch her and you feel alive<br /> So live for the moment<br /> And take this advice, live by every word<br /> Love&#039;s completely real, so forget anything that you&#039;ve heard<br /> And live for the moment now

A million little splattered colors
Dust in a beam of light
Fragments of ice shards melting
Pieces are around us
Nothing is whole
Maroon bricks complete a building
Blossoms pile under a cherry tree
Cells make up my body
Single specks of dirt
Build our Earth
