Badu Said

Badu said
‘ love of my life, you are my friend’

See when the gates opened up and the choir sang when the most majestic one asked me what I wanted most out of my life
I said a love for life
See my soul hadn’t entered the capsule that would carry it as yet
My memories of my past life still fresh in my mind
I knew what I wanted and before I was born into this world to live a brand new life
I wanted to ensure that I asked for the one thing that had kept me sane
The love of my life

I remember the first time I saw your soul
It glistened so bright
I had no idea what you actually looked like or would look like lifetime after lifetime
I don’t know if you would be male or female
I just hoped that I could find you in that insane place called earth
See you didn’t only glisten
Your halo hovered above your head
And when we faced each other
I knew what I felt was love
Love unconditional so much so that even Hercules would bend his knees
And ask to be yours forever
Superman would forget about kryptonite
And the devil he would forget about being evil
Because when the higher being created you you were love filled and you stayed that way

And I
I
Just want to be a part of that miracle
So I asked for the love of my life
And when those words caught your ears
You floated to me
You took a part of me and you promised me that we would find each other
Because what I’ve found in you
You’ve found in me
And together we
Are reborn
Only being able to see glimpses of ourselves long enough to remember our pact

Ms. Badu
Said ‘Maybe I’ll see you next lifetime’
Not like broken promises
But wishful thinking
And I’ve seen you every lifetime
Loved you for many
And I ask for the same thing
Every time I get to heavens gate
I ask for
The love of my life
See many take it for granted but you’ve always kept me steady
Kept me safe
Regardless of the earthquakes
Floods, wars, drought
Whatever every lifetime brings us
We face it together
And like Ms. Badu said
‘Love of my life you are my friend, love of my life I can depend without you baby seems like a simple true love’
