My heaven is not yours

Oh I understand that the empyrean* is not for me
Not in this lifetime; if ever it shall be within grasp
If the baser part of existence is unleashed and tamed
Even without divine intervention we find our heaven

*Empyrean (Pr empirian) - the highest part of heaven, believed in ancient Greek and Roman times to contain pure fire or light and believed by some Christians to be the dwelling place of God)
