&quot;Said we go to war just to bring us together, I believe in Love, I believe in forever...&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Eyes see everything...&quot; -Devon Torble,<br /> <br /> &quot;Caught up in love&quot;- Joseph M. Lyons,<br /> <br /> &quot;I speak my words, through a broken truth,<br /> ...I bite my lip, and taste its guilt,<br /> I see heaven on the horizon, but I turn my back,<br /> Paradise must wait,<br /> For when it dies,<br /> The truth shall be revealed&hellip;&quot; - Joseph Michael Lyons,<br /> <br /> &quot;Seen through an angel&rsquo;s eyes,<br /> I&rsquo;ve found love where it truly lies,<br /> And when that angel cries,<br /> All my pain slowly dies&hellip;&quot; - Cassandra Burnes and Joseph Lyons

Come with me to the garden,
Where the light always overcomes the darkness within us all…
Come with me to paradise,
Where all good deeds are rewarded…
Follow me into the forest,
And let the rain wash away all of our worries…
Follow me to the open fields,
And lay with me until time stands still…
Drink with me in the pools of life,
And sail to with me to all unknown lands…
Wait for me in the afterlife,
For our loves embrace shall not tire…
You have bitten the sacred fruit and tasted its knowledge,
Your eyes are open from the place you ounce came…
You were given life,
Come with me,
Gaia is waiting…
