Freed Love

Where is the fun in straight lines?

I fancy another flavour,

Could this explain my behaviour?

Lovely serpentine, you’ve tempted me—

I’ve eaten every apple off the tree.

I’m sorry, did I sabotage our Eden?

My beauty, you are lush like Sweden.

You cut me to the core—

I have fear about us sadly,

But still I want more,

And I will savour you gladly.

Where is the fun in straight lines?

We risk paying some hefty fines—

If I go to Hell, then you’re worth burning for.

I’ve never seen a fallen angel more mystical,

Or heard words so lyrical;

And felt touch so magical—

I didn’t mean it when I said this could be bad,

The fact that I feared so makes me very sad.

If I died tomorrow and Heaven didn’t exist,

The fear would be for nothing,

And, girl, we sure have something.

Baby, I’m a liberal:

I don’t care anymore,

I see the beauty in both genders;

To give me love you don’t need to be a man;

You satisfy me in every way;

Deep down I know everything will be OK.

For you I’d throw all my money in a well till I was broke,

All the riches in the world are worth nothing if I can’t have you.

Now that I’ve spoken,

Can’t you see I love you?

You’re natural like a bluebell,

My most favourite flower.

I’d never pick you,

For you would die,

But I would nurture you,

As I’d want to grow with you.

I dream about you every day and night,

You are an avenue to be explored—

Because when I’m with you it feels right,

These feelings cannot be ignored.

I cannot live a lie,

Never did me any good.

I must always speak the truth:

And our love is living proof.
