Born To Love



Born to love.
To give it and it to get.
Born to love.
And as a child growing up to admit.
A being taught of evil.
People.
Living to commit their sins.
People.
Born with a loving to end.
Leaving me wondering about what love,
Was!

I just wanted hugs.
Cuddled up in it and loved.
Cuddled up in to feel,
More of it to get it.
Nonstop.
Not have it on me quit.
Unprepared was I for this.

I just wanted hugs.
Believing it this was my life to live.
Forever and ever!

My first taste of evil I admit was delicious.
I became addicted to commit,
Sins!
Sins to protect and defend them meant.
Knowing I wasn't born,
To invent them.
Then I would pray to God,
For His forgiveness given.

Since I was born to love not lust.
Just like many others,
Born to love, but...
If not for lust,
There'd be no one to love.
Confessing they committed sins.
Living this life blessed to be given.
Tempted.
And teased by YOUR temptations,
Unending to test my faith!

I'm born to love as You wished it, Father.
Yes!
I'm was born to love,
With this blessing...
From You to get.
Yet I must admit...
Sins I didn't invent,
To commit!
