I was in heaven for a short time
She opened the door,and my heart skipped a beat.
I felt as though I couldn't breathe.
When she hugged me I couldn't believe.
How someone as lovely as she,could be in love with me.
The smell of her perfume.
The feel of her body pressed up against mine
Sent chills of excitement,throughout out this body of mine.
I held her in my arms so tight,,Not wanting this moment to end.
For a moment is all we had.
Because time,never stands still.
The time moved to fast,and before we knew it our time had past.
It was time for her to leave.
My heart ached for her to stay, but I knew she couldn't stay.
We had two beautiful days together,two days that i spent in heaven.
I know this wont be the last time we spend together.
I know that one day we will be together,forever.
When that day finally comes,and we are united, together forever.
I know from that day on.
I will truly be,IN HEAVEN.
