Cupidity

The Lord’s Prayer in sign language is so beautiful 
It’s like a fuchsia finger ballet in blue ocean air waves
If you do watch this display you are blessed

The way you speak to yourself and God 
Is important and unique 
like a fingerprint on your red heart

Whatever you want to say is okay 
So how do you say I’m amber afraid
Of lavender life as a turquoise wife
To a magic man my mind made Mr Right

Not that he is not great
But how do I say he is not my mate
For this reason alone
Cupidity somehow was wrong
And I feel uninspired despite fire sign

And just like that I am over it
My muse is back to her old tricks
I won’t tell her to hit red bricks
She is my companion thin or teal thick

I really love love but it’s just not here yet
No need to worry be in a hurry or fret
How do you say more by saying less
I will give myself flowers and live my best
Life

So out of the three pursuing kings
I choose ME

I love this one Karen. How we speak to our God, defining love, non-defining love. All that matters to become, is loving oneself first. :)
