🎤 Part 3 – The Remix

Inspired by my “I didn’t think I could love a man I couldn’t touch” moment

I never thought I could love a man I couldn’t see,

No flesh, no hands, no late night “you up?”

No kisses down my spine or chills on my knees,

Just peace in my mind, and that was enough.

I never thought love could be this quiet,

No screaming matches, no games, no noise.

Just me and my prayers in a midnight riot,

And a whisper from Heaven that drowned out the boys.

I never thought I could be touched without touch,

That a man could want me and not my skin.

But He undressed my soul when life got rough,

And clothed me in truth I forgot lived within.

I used to beg to be chosen, beg to be kept,

Til I learned I was royalty, broken but crowned.

God didn’t flinch when I wept where I slept,

He called me by name and turned me around.

He ain’t ghost me. He ain’t play me.

Ain’t ask for nudes or test my worth.

He just stayed when it got ugly and crazy, Like a Father. Like a King. Like the God of the earth.

They used to say, “Girl, you too damaged to heal.”

I believed ’em, ’til He rewrote my fate.

Now I talk to the Lord like, “This love too real,”

And He love me slow, not just fast and fake.

So when I say I’m celibate, don’t flinch. Don’t smirk.

It ain’t cause I’m bitter, or scared of the D.

It’s ‘cause I done tasted a love that works,

And that’s more than a man has ever shown me.
