he said to me;
those intoxicating eyes of yours
turn them away my love
for alcohol is forbidden in my religion
is it not enough for you
that i live as long as your heart beats?
at some point in my life
i would have responded;
i’ll sacrifice my life for you
so what is this religion
i’ll change that which
makes it forbidden for me to love you
would you?
i often make fun of myself now
i didn’t realize
i was sacrificing my life for which
would not sacrifice for me
– this is not about religion
