Heaven Isn’t A Place On Earth

“I think I just met the happiest person on earth.” I thought to myself as I watched her run… No, dance through the swaying trees of a forest of leaves catching fire of orange and yellow. Leaves falling from twisted branches like snow highlighting her graceful form in the near distance. A few paces ahead of her ran her ever faithful dog who periodically looked over his head at her, tongue lolling happily out. These weekend trail runs had become a staple of our time together. It is comical though, how ones outward appearance shields the true emotion within. She turns her head, blonde hair swinging away from her rosy face. A smile spreads across her lips and I swear I see it in slow motion. How the action takes over her entire face. I am chasing after her, after my dreams. I never knew how ones world could be condensed into something so small and fragile. A feeling like love. Like forever. Like happiness.
