When I made love to God
It was a wicked Wednesday
When everything good happened
And I chased the FedEx truck
And got my book
The first one I have ever published
And then to thank God
I ran like a bat out of hell
And listened to the Dire Straits
Romeo and Juliet on repeat
“You can fall for chains of silver
You can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers
And the promises they hold”
I fell back in love with God
Today
And it was more meaningful
Than when I got married
One day
My feet hit pavement
And I’m still held down by gravity
And I’m alive today
And grateful
For being so
