. . . Let's Talk It Over

The nocturnal routine call started but I was certain There is fire along the mountain, yet don’t know If I should run or wait, get water and quench it I insisted that she share her feelings with me For I can be trusted or I cut off the day’s duty She bogged at last, “it wasn’t you or anything” Then, what?, who is it or what is it in your mind?” “My spirit is no longer down with the relationship As I was praying, I felt my spirit no longer agrees” I got lost on phone for I wasn’t thinking straight My feet became very cold, yet my body was all hot. “What did you just say? “ “I’m sorry, you heard me” Well, break it down, I need to know all, tell me At least why you’re stopping this dream and fantasy now I can’t get it myself, please, I am confused . . . But I still want you to come over as planned Sorry, so that I can be embarrassed by you abi? No You just said your spirit was negative about it I said what did the Lord say about us? Sorry, about me? Did HE say that I wasn’t good for you or that I’m fake? Please, I’m sorry, just stop it now or else will cry . . . I am waiting if that will make it clearer to me, talk to me “Please, just come over, so that we can talk it over, please”. Two and half hours gone by on this new puzzle Still find it very unbelievable, me again on phone? Quitting another relationship with me on phone Within six months interval, Lord! Why me again? “Talk it over and declare the relationship as being over Or talk it over and see the darkness era being declared over! “ I will go and see her, will not chicken out at this stage.
