Heaven//Mantra

Poems from when I knew them

By Chick OrlandoPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

I'd search for your love under rocks, far out in uncharted waters, I'd search the deepest and darkest places

But I know in the end, I'd only ever find it in heaven

/ /

I want to love you purely and without hesitation

But can a sinners love been pure?

And have I even sinned?

This is becoming my mantra

A self-fulfilling prophecy of my own

But you placed yourself in the flow of this prophecy creating a fork in the river

I can leave you and pretend it never happened altogether

Or I could love you viscerally without repent
