I searched all of Heaven for my love,
The only mate for my longing soul.
I could see nothing,
But a painted sea
Of golden-kissed deep blue
And flowers sleeping on the shore,
And all this I did perceive through her dreams.  
I chased red silk to the shores of
paradise, and alone in my own childhood purity
I noticed
the other half of me
Naked as the baby born
with lilies in her hair, and stars upon
Her Bosom.  
We became as night and day;
The beginning to an end
and we were there forever,
embracing the painted blue skies.    

Dancing in the sky I was
In daze of times that passed me by
Like the waterfalls that were falling fast
That I was chasing down
To the end of all eternity I smiled
And they were chasing me too.  
Like Balloons
We drifted away
Across mountains placed miles apart
Above a land far down below
Though seemingly, it was a lake
Frozen over.  So we glided on.
I was watching this amazing movie called 'What Dreams May Come' (starring Robin Williams..and some other people). It's about this doctor who searches Heaven and Hell for his wife. I wont go into detail, I guess you'd have to see the movie (or actually be in my head) to understand every line. Im REALLY going to bed now.

I literally just finished watching the movie, it's been a favorite of mine for a long time, and decided to do a search on it. I found this wondrous piece.

My favorite lines:

We became as night and day;
The beginning to an end

Simply remarkable, inspiring.
Great job.
