Twins are a blessing from heaven
(And he has the voice of God)
Don’t tell them what you’re doing,
Or they’ll think you’ve lost the plot.
I’m a witch––
And you’re something else entirely,
More than an angel,
But less than a god.
You’re the perfect woman
That no man on earth deserves.
(She tried to break me,
But she showed how weak she is,
Because she needs me so much,
She’s willing to drag me to hell).
It’s the highest compliment, really.
The seven deadly sins
Are no picnic,
But no match
For God in heaven.
The deepest evil,
Or the most terrifying beauty––
We don’t know which,
And that’s the way it should be.
Be the smartest person,
But also the most loving,
Because then you will walk with God
And there are angels all around.
Madness looks evil,
Because it’s genius,
And that happens once in a lifetime––
Only when we are together,
Which we will be,
For all time.
Because we’re partners in crime,
And luckily,
We can both write.
You taught me to be strong,
You taught me to be free.
You taught me to think,
And most important of all––
You taught me to be me.
