Three of Swords
The 9th story of ‘Divine Revelation’.
Lord bless my mind,
My mouth,
And my heart.
I reach for my cards and begin to start.
.
Show me the future
The present,
The past.
I’d like to see how long my patience will last.
.
A sword for my head,
My heart,
My body.
My eyes start to fill as my vision goes spotty.
.
I’m angry;
I’m hurting;
I’m biting through pain.
Can somebody please come and take all the blame?
.
Slice through my heart,
My heart,
And my heart again.
Today only three, but tomorrow perhaps the ten.
.
Lie on my face
As my heart
Starts to bleed.
Why do the bad things always come in threes?

I'm not a Vocal Newbie (not that there's anything wrong with that), and I'm technologically comfortable. But, I'm also perhaps too comfortable. I think I know, even if I know that I don't know what I don't know, I still think I know more that I do know.

I love the integration of the meaning of the cards & your rhythm. Very relatable haha
