the inevitable heart break

When the sun comes up,

we think the moon falls,

but it doesn’t.

It’s there always.

So, I promiseto be your moon,

always there,never gone.

And while the sun comes,

and other people come and go,

I’ll be your moon,

I’ll be always there.

I was praying in the shower today,

thinking about us

and the smile you put on my face.

I thought of everything we’re doing,

everything we’re planning.

I remembered the conversation

we had at church about this.

“What’s the point?” they asked.

“Is it worth it?” they said.

I don’t think I can answer any of those,

but I’ve said no

to every single guy,

to every opportunity

to have what we have.

What made me say yes to you?

It makes me think:

he must be special.

I don’t know where this will go,

but if it goes bad,

at least I experienced something with you.

And so at least I can answer one of the questions:

Is it worth it?

Yes, he is worth it.
