Praise Sappho!
If it were not for her
I would not be able
To speak of my love for women
To the heavens
If it were not for her
I would be far too
Sheepish
To confess my truth
For Sappho is my savior
And I am her
Disciple
How I have longed to shamelessly
Proclaim my adoration for my lover
Without a care in the world
How I have been
Blessed
To be in the presence of a nymph that
Sappho chose
Just for me
Her heart alone
A precious diamond
How all the stars in this galaxy
Shine in her eyes
Her smile and laughter
Like a warm embrace
Her long hair flies
With the wind
Her voice
Soft and sweet like
The maiden she is
How I am no longer afraid
To be able to
Find pride in my love for
Women
To have my fair maiden
At my side
To be with her
Not as a friend but as
A lover
And so,
I thank Sappho for this blessing
And I pray
To her gods
That she is in nirvana with a maiden
For her
And only her.
