Is Paradise Too Much To Ask

Take me to paradise
Where the grass is always green
On any side.

Take me to a place where worry is no more
Where tears fall as raindrops on rose petals
Where love paints a rainbow.

There's no love to be found after the sunsets
And the words of destruction fall as stars from heaven
When I fret.

Please don't eat the flesh of my desire
With your beastly claims
Aimed at my flesh when I try.

Like the morning flowering vines of nature
I hide in the forenoon bedew
keeping my heart shut down from rupture

Thus I dance a lullaby
Every night before I die
After each thrashing one a day at a time.
