A Higher Love

I am not of this world anymore
I've glanced upward, as Ann
And glanced toward, as Ms. Shallot
But remained alive, and so did he.

I float and go about my day
With feet planted firmly on the ground
And yet I feel untouchable
And untouchable.
And untouchable.

I wish joy for everyone, now
Instead of insidious envy
Fought against, with fists
No, I don't want another life anymore.

I want this.  And this. And this.
All mine, what was mine all along
I simply waited long enough
To be joined here, in my own.  

I've proven to myself true, Ali.
Something so much better
And yet I feel your yearning
And want to tell you, Yes

And yes
And yes.

I am not of this world anymore.
And yet, I am a higher version of myself
Here, I will be loved
As I have learned to love myself,

First.
