The Cradle of Humanity

If I can rearrange the way that the universe looks, I would trade the stars
with your eyes.
After all, your eyes are radiant enough to substitute even the brightest
of celestial bodies that ever danced in the vault of heaven.

Whenever a poet uses the expression "twinkling eyes", you are usually thought of.
Whenever a love song is composed, you are usually that composer's
inspiration.

I see no point in planting flowers for the most exquisite has blossomed in
the garden of my heart.
I see no point in airplanes for your love has taken me to heights never
imagined.

If I could rearrange the universe, I would trade the sun with your love for
my world revolves around it right now.
Your heart sheds more light than any sunrise ever conceived.

I look back and realize how empty my life was before you.
Imagine how barren my world would be after you.

I have encountered love before. I've stared at it in the face.
But the greatest meeting in the history of man kind was when my heart linked
with yours.

If I could reorient how the universe works, I would substitute heaven with your arms
for I feel like an angel whenver you're holing me.
I feel as though nothing can ever be as precious as the arms that keep me
from the demons that lurk below.

I think of the past and everything seems so irrelevant... so meaningless.
My life suddenly had significance as soon as you entered the real of my dreams.

For once in my life, I found someone I can't imagine being without.
I'm soaring higher than the celestial spirits for I found a love that flows
deeper than any ocean in this cradle of humanity.

Actuallu I wouldn't change the universe for it's already perfect as long as you're mine.
The world looks beautiful as long as I'm exploring it with you therefore I would          
never dream of changing it's design.
