I am not.....

entry picture

I am not the sun,

I do not radiate light,

I like to have fun,

don't like to fight.



I am not the sun,

I can't live alone,

even having fun

I'd like to be flown.



Someone calls me sunny

and I certainly like it,

but prefer to hear honey,

for me it's more a fit.



I am not the sun,

I am just a woman.

Yes, I like to have fun

but dream about a true man.



I am not an angel,

I have no wings,

when I read the Bible

it touches my souls strings.



I am not an angel,

I am on the Earth,

I go to the temple,

I know it's worth.



Yes, I am not an angel,

you should know that.

I prefer to be real

but... sorry... not a pet.



I am not to follow an example

but I always try to win.

I hate those who trample beauty,

I think it's one of the biggest sin.
