Love's Worth

And as I admire him I ask myself
is it even worth it?
Friendship
Relationship
Warship
Worshiping his mind
and running my fingers thru his African ropes.
Breathing him as I fall asleep
on his brown shoulder
And as I drift into waves of theta
I think of you

I love you deep
Real deep like bottom feeders
cleaning me
on my ocean floor
Like you were my stem
and I your petals
in lifetimes before
Like as deep as loving can be
But he makes me feel so free

Sister, save me from my daydreams
for I am mapping out
the soil in which he and I shall frolic
Running
hand-in-hand
barefoot from east land to the west
Swimming the oceans stilled with peace
Yea sister save me
from thinking he and I were
divinely chosen

How mysterious is our God

Save me
sister
from getting so lost into our dialogue
that he and I become transcendental
Sensuality no longer a necessity
Save me sister
from making him my Earth-Jah
so "I and I" can live harmoniously

Cuz sister,
I love you deep
Real deep like how the simple
describes complexity
Like the notes of a double bass
Like my REM sleep
Deep like the roots of the wawa tree
and strong like its seed
So deep that loving him
would cost a piece of me
Petals can not live sans stem
and the ocean floor must be cleaned
Without REM I could never dream again

And as I admire him
I ask myself
is it even worth it?
