A Love
This is a love poem
and I'm writing it
like Whitney would sing it
in mezzo-soprano
with highs and lows
filling heart and soul.
Men and women
ladies and gentlemen
“Let’s stay together.”
In love, let’s be a lyric
paint the sky red
and fly rockets to bed.
Let’s melt into a melody
hang from cliffs in climax
screaming scats in pure ecstasy.
I told you
this
is a love poem
you’ve been warned.
Let’s be a long, strong ballad
get lost in baby-making sighs
soft echoes and love cries.
Let’s be united
synchronized
let’s be baptized
emerge as two hearts
two souls
one love.
Let’s sit on the rock
and feel God
receive His blessing
flow in His anointing
read His handwriting
on our walls.
Let’s pray
for a more perfect
union
that we might rule
together
enjoy dominion
forever.
I can be
God's Eve
corrected
you can be
His Adam
redirected
together
we can be
love
perfected.
In love
about love
all for love
to love
beyond love
above love
me for you
and you for me
that’s the kind of love
our love
should be
A His kind of love
an our kind of love
Etta’s “Saturday kind of love”
when “your love is my love”
and our love is
this love
It’s a love
it's a love
always will be
a love.
