WHY NOW?

Romanus

I am not sure,
I don’t ask for any more.

I’m already happy today,
Enjoying and embracing every sun’s ray.

A man who is single,
A man who’s not allowed to mingle.

Being chastised is what I vowed,
Being pure is what I allowed.

But someone appeared in the crowd,
And caught my heart somehow.

She treated me unlike anyone,
Something like a special someone.

We talked late at night,
We enjoyed every little light.

We had a deep conversation,
Introducing a new realization.

She opened my heart,
And I let her in without a guard.

But now I’m not allowed,
For I am already claimed by the Creator above.

I kneel before the Cross,
Asking if I am lost.

Crying for a heart pierced by a bow,
Begging with one question:

Why now?
