ONCE NOW AND FOREVER

The Ashé emanated from her soul, Pure gold Gleamed inside her fantastical eyes. No lies I wasn't obligated to worship this temple on bent knees. Please I did so willingly, religiously. Daily praise. Daughter of sacred maize Drinking from her cup Eating of her bread. It was Holy Communion. A blessed Union I didn't have to look deep, to see the halo Or feel the contour of her back for wings, To know she was an angel a piece of heaven on earth. Immaculate birth like miracle Didn't have to Lock, through oath and ring, this union. That lifetimes couldn't sever Since, we were already bonded Fused by spirit and time Endless storyline We ain't perfect but we're perfect together Always Once, now and forever. Once now and Forever This is some eternal love Life is our treasure Yes, This be immortal love You know...when you can feel the warmth of the sun, In each other's embrace... See the shape of god in her face When you become each other's religion; Each body a temple Worshiped with devotion. It's Energy in motion When you no longer have to wonder What heaven is like. When each moment in her arms Is paradise When you understand resurrection of joy Ascension into bliss. Tasting the nectar of Oshun on her lips When you can gaze the universe In each other's eyes,and get there. Without wings Walking on air When you get How the moon effects the oceans, How the clouds mesh with sky. How time stands still When you look into each other's eyes When you find yourself, at times apart, Wishing you could be each other's shadow. Knowing if armies came against her You would swiftly ride into battle When not one wonder in this world Can match the taste of each other's lips. When even the sun can't match the heat Of your lovers bliss When together You see forever with eyes shut. You know this There's no option better Because no matter what Me and you together Are Once, now and forever. Once now and Forever This is some eternal love Life is our treasure Yes, This be immortal love I, the sun, you, the moon. Together creating gravitational forces that makes waves. Over us Stars swoon The warmth of our passion affects the world around us Melting ice off hearts that begged proof of loves existence. No resistance. We welcomed each other's heart in our realms King sun. Queen moon. Majestic monarchs of self. Triangulating love. The nucleus of circles. Sun, moon, ocean. Love potion number 7 and 8 Yemaya and Obatala Time and space Stands still when we make love We're the proof heaven ain't just above I light your day, as you illuminate my night. No void. We meld together Like pen and write This... All that we are Is the formula for eternity. We weather the storms And we storm the weather This is Eternal love Once, now and forever. Once now and Forever This is some eternal love Life is our treasure Yes, This be immortal love
