A Beautiful Sin

We ask How would it be like to cheat with your soulmate My love,we have passed with flying colors defeating all odds yet we still stand now in sync more than ever Completing each others sentences is a coin tossed long time ago We are far beyond that now We are an academic article only to be found in the deep web We are an epiphany of a Buddhist monk about to set his whole body on fire We complete each others thoughts I ask If we were to paraphrase the story Were a fairy brings a tale in stead of making a living out of teeth Were you on the other side are dating another guy lets say his name is Sabelo and I am dating Karabo Can I pick you to be my partner in this sin Imagine the fun we could have knowing exactly there's more to what reality is feeding us for breakfast There is more to what meets the heart Can we do this ? Can we perfect this art of cheating? Can we rename each other's contact numbers on our phones Can we be jumpy whenever our partners seem to be penetrating deep within the transcriptions of reading between the lines Can our emails be the last line of defense in our communication Would you dare do for completeness ? Would you live a glow in the dark life and be in the command center of what peeks your interests in being happy? In fact ,allow me to be an ass Tell me about your day Tell me about him,whats missing in his touch that made you gallop in my front door and choose to ooze in my touch ... I will tell you why I am here also,speaking paradise ....,deceiving.. I ask Is deceiving a justification of a true act of love? I read somewhere that when you love two people at the same time Go for the second Because if you truly loved the first one,you wouldn't have fallen for the second one in the first place I would find you in another lifetime and recognize you in a different language Darling ,it just happens in these timeline its called cheating a century from now Can we turn the tables around? Can you sneak in my flat? Leave in the early hours and blame it on your friend Can Sabelo be a fool for us? Can he not see whats going on here Can I pass you walking with him,can I greet you guys? Shake his hand and only look at you once ... Can our hug in front of him be innocent? We ask How would it be like cheating with your soulmate?
