Touched My Heart
I touched my heart,
For the first time I knew
It was not beating,
But I was breathing.
I remember waiting for hours
For the false prophet to come,
Yet God was there in an around me.
Has the story reached you,
Of the companions of the condom;
How they were destroyed
And deleted from the face of the earth,
For they took the condom
As refuge to rush to
As protector for their base desires
Of lust and casual sex.
I thank God, He took me away
From darkness to Light;
Anything I do to harm myself
Is what I choose to do
With full knowledge of wrong doing.
I have always known I was beautiful
With you I was beautiful;
But for the first time I know
I am beautiful with you;
I could have hurt you last night;
I was soozled, but it flew away;
All I desire is to be beautiful with you!
