Let Me Be

I am the butterfly
I am the tree
I am God
For God lives in me
I am not a figment of your imagination
IÕm really here
Living and breathing
So just let me be
Love is luscious
Like the petals of a rose
Almost eatable
Deliciously ripe
Glowing and growing and blooming
A rose is honey
If you add a bee
So just let me be
Who I am
Love is universal
It orbits my heart
Saturn has rings
So does my love
My brain grows stars
Shining and winking and twinkling
You can see them in my eyes
If you dare to look
In the face of a lion
Which is I
So just let me be
For I am me
And you canÕt do it
Cause you donÕt understand my cipher
Try to decipher
Ha
You canÕt solve my puzzle
ItÕs already put together
YouÕre looking at the picture
Broken down into words
Each picture is worth a thousand of those
Love is fluid
Love makes
And love brakes
But donÕt stop
Love is eternal
Ethereal
Perpetual
The more you give
The more you get
The more you have
The more you give
And yes
I love you
For you are God
God lives in you
Love me, love me, love me
Open your eyes
Hello love
What a nice surprise
Time takes
And time gives
But it makes no mistakes
Do you receive
Love
I do
So just let me be
Loved
As I live
On my own planetary dimension
Swimming in a pool of blood
Cause blood comes
From the heart
And so does my love
I pump love through my veins
Be freer
Fly
Make everywhere your home
Home is where the heart is
The heart is in the chest
Next to the lungs
I breathe love
Sweat and sour love
Love is a poem
This is a poem
This is love
So just let me be
A poem
Wrapped around you heart
Cause word for word
My voice is love
I speak in love
I am the flower
I am the water
If you canÕt see me
Just look a little harder
Come as you were
Leave as you are
Be who you be
And youÕll go far
