Let's Talk
"Bae....sit down
Cause
We need to have a serious coversation"
I'm sitting there-
Patting down on the cushion to my right
I see your jaw tense
Your eye's soften
You're nervous wreck
Hoping
What I'm thinking
Has nothing to do with
The negitivity around us
Womens' jealousy towards me
Womens' lust for your touch
Unbarable
Unimaginable
You're wondering
Is this the end??
The end of our journey
Our time???
The end of our love-
The end of four (4)
prosperous years
Its written boldly on your face
Is it the end of...
Us
I see you
Over there sweating bullets
Of panic
I hold up my hand
Silencing the words you were about to say
Then proceeded
"These years have been
The greatest ever....
You have been, the greatest ever
I mean...truly
What woman wouldn't be after you
On a foundation of
Trust& respect-
Loving kindness-
We have buit a house
That reflects us both
As one
Shows us for who we are
Sweetie, it's not you
- its me
All me-
The lustful women
The jealous women
Me--
Having to deal with their trying
Years have gone by
-Months
-- Weeks, days
----Every minute of hour
& every second of that minute
Away from you is spent...
Spent wondering.....!"
I trail off
Seeing the distress on
Your face
Seeing tears run-
streaming from your eyes
I then place my hand on your cheek
Wiping away every tear
Slowly i continue
"Bae, its not you
--it's me"
........ "Sweetie please save it"
You say as you get up
Heading to the door
"You don't want me
Any more-----
I can see it- the hard times
Arguing
-jealous& envious women"
......."Bae, its not you its me.."
Tears flowing...silently
I get up& approach him
The sound of him
His heart beat
Feeling his very being
Our souls intwinded
Aching for him
But this must be said
"My love, I must say we have a lot of fun
But I think this phase of
Us
Is over& done-
we are no longer high school sweethearts
Or childhood crushes-
W have matured
You- a man...
&I- a woman
So its sad to say that I've lost my childhood love
My childhood crush....
My friend..."
.................
"But bae-
You haven't even let me finish what I.."
....."I've heard all you NEEDED to say"
"Bae please don't leave
Just because I love another
&Chose to be married off to him
But he must be respectable to you
He must be of your approval
My childhood love....
So you shall meet him"
As I get the mirror
Heading out to him
"Here...look
...because the man you see
Is the man that I
....he is no longer the boy he was years ago..
Bae from my crush, you have grown
Into a Godly man--Who I'm ready to take this next step with
One who accepts my flaws
The man that truly understands me--
A man- heaven sent
Made just for me
A man I want to spend my
Every day with
Hour with
Minute, every second with
Who encourages me
To walk in the faith
Of the man upstairs
This----
I am truly blessed"
As tears rolled down my face
I walk into the comfort of your arms
Both of us
With silly grins on our face
