Fortune Cookie -LM

I don’t believe in deity
But when corn-starch and syrup hatched a prophecy reading ‘make a wish’
I laughed, viscerally,
My darling, you’re already true.
How all at once ridiculous and unthinkable seems fortuity?
When it comes to me and you

I don’t believe in deity
But watching you is ethereal
Bathe in the adoration of every soul you’ve ever known
Oh, how I love to bear witness
To such a gorgeous christening.
Wherever you sprinkle yourself
An Eden grows

I don’t believe in deity
But tonight, I prayed to God
That he’d make you a sinner
In the next life, where I’m butter and you the knife
Smear me on honey, my love,
And we’ll have toast for dinner

Need not for luck
Nor chance, nor fate
But this I already knew.
Maybe I do believe in deity
But now I call it 
Loving you
