Love At First Sight

Love was in the air when he laid eyes on her.
Childhood; elementary and even high school with her.
Walking towards her, he greeted her.
Anxiety spiraled as he hugged her.
Conversation grew deeper as he sat with her.
Wanting to get closer because he was falling for her.

Another woman called pausing the time he was having with her.
Knowing he had to answer; he stepped away and spoke to her.
She stated that something wasn't quite right with her.
She said that her stomach had been bothering her.
Now he's thinking back if he came inside her.
Thinking if she lied to him about her tubes being tied within her.

Does he blame himself for listening to her?
Knowing right from wrong and yet he can't blame her.
Does he blame the devil for allowing him to be intimate with her?
Is he not a human that makes mistakes just like her?
Begging God to make a way for him and her.
Asking God to forgive him for committing the sin with her.

God said, "relax my son, you were only dreaming of her."

Good read. I especially love the part of 'relax, you were only dreaming of her' and how the disconnect between stanza one and two shows it was a dream state. I never knew until the end though. Keep it up

WEll, that was great making it a dream, G. I imagine a guy feels very stressed hearing a woman say something is "not quite right" with her! I like how you made it into something ethical, discussing feelings of guilt and how it was a sin. That is refreshing to see!
