Shaped by the Waters of Oxum

Shaped by the Waters of Oxum

Oxum, I am a jagged stone,
My edges carve wounds where I've grown.
Not in malice but in fear,
I've forgotten how to love life dear.

Sweet Oxum, your golden waters flow,
With patient love that knows no haste,
Your currents dance above hard stones,
Reshaping through your gentle pace.

In this world where humans crutch,
Where fists clash and dreams lie broken,
We yearn for your transformative touch
That reshapes with gentle words spoken.

We need a love that molds without shattering,
That transforms conflict into melody
Jagged stones like me into pebbles
In which your waters can dance and settle

Oxum, teach this alchemy:
To blend both strength and diplomacy,
To stand firm while flowing free,
To love a love as sweet as it can be
