Confessions and Heaven

Her lips are my church / her thighs my confessional / bless me / i am going
going
going
to heaven / to space / to expand
to surrender
to love
goddamn / i am holy / full / broken
open
by my wholeness
hallelujah
I am living resistance.
Still here.

I built my paradise in my chest and will not be denied on the basis of fear.

I am going
going
going
God / don't rush me / please.
I want to experience it all.
