By Liila Morisee

I am a devotee of Jesus and Mary and Mary

Both the mother and the lover

I want them all, no holds barred

The voice inside me calls out

There you are, the one that holds all the longing

I want my mother, the Great Mother

The one that birthed the Savior

I want the truth that saves me

That holds me and caresses me

That brings me ecstasy

That satisfies me to my very core

Yes, I say yes, I want it all
