Believe



My dreams are simple
I don’t ask for much
All I want is…
Nothing real
It’s all in the air
It’s in the burnt air from candles
The candles that burn for miracles
In the holiest of places
It’s the breath she breathes out
And the heart of the Angels
The love of a woman
Love as incandescent as a ghost
Love that gently holds the world
The thousands of degrees of the farthest star
Prayers won’t bring this love to me
Belief will
I believe in God
Therefore he is with me
I believe in love
Therefore I am alive
Can you Believe?!?!
