HOW LOVE MADE US BREAK DANCE ON WATER

There's something Gordy about books that have names for everything
They are priced in god and gold even when they are just what the authors made them and authors make only what they are made of mistakes.

Like the way the dictionary defined love in a single language.
Yet, the love my parent shared isn't the one that was between my girl and I,
Because I once told her we could leave everything behind:
Our families, shadows, siblings worries and go where no one knows us.
She replied with a love smiley
But I know behind the phone, someone called me stupid.

Where I came from, candlelights are portraits of genuine love.
The world merry while the fire burns,& then when breeze comes, everything sinks into a dark holes.
Sometimes,upon realizing that there are ghosts breeding water
I go to the beach to make bodies of companions while I watch the sea kiss the shore
Because I think she wants my money
& she thinks I want her body
& along the line our love grow into the same gender.

a man does not use a love reaction on another man's status.
Yet I stand for the revolution. I know what love can do;
Like how love made us walk in the valley of the shadow death feared was heartbreak;
How it broke us into morpheme of ideas that made the world think we are drunk;
How we came, after a lifetime, to a bridge of life and death and still we chose to sit for a French kiss.
How we turn on the stereo,played a pop song,set our feet on water and did some breakdance.
