Holy War

My dearest mom, your silence kills me!
Won't you love my lover for love's alone sake!
Don't you know that you possessed me not!
Though you wished ever it not to be so!

Mom, your love is not love,
Until you give it away in love!
Do I hurt you when I help you,
To get any logic out of this rude calculation?

Now I bring a keeper to the sweetness in me,
That you taught to your baby, as he grew as man,
To store in his chest with a magic scapular, But
She waved her magic wand in a smile to his heart!

Mom, if in pain you are set on your ways,
To throw a stone at me as I broke your secret chest!
May Jesus look at you in loving proposal,
And me get my mom to love my love!

My sweet love, let's bow our heads,
Through this litany of saints to touch her feet,
That she may bend her back and touch our face,
To sign a cross with her scapular to enter our home!
