Why--- Until

As I see again.. 
today... this man
Follows me.. everywhere I go
For tis man... even comes
To my school.. (College)
Even when tis be.. on my job
he shows... he is there... 

As my employer 
Called me today
Asks me.. this man... 
Do you know him?
I said.. well sorta...

Is he your boyfriend?
I said.. No...
Is this man.. Your husband?
I said again.. No...

Then my empoyer said
Tis man goes everywhere you go
We know.. He Follows you to school
We know.. He told us.. he has to be
Every where your at at all times
Are you sure... he is not yours
I said.. No.. he is not

You don't understand..
This man.. he thinks 
he is to take care of me
Until.. 
time my Prince shall come
I have told him there is no need
For my Lord.. tis Only one.. 
whom takes care of me

But many times tis man.. he says..
He must 
for tis what the Lord wants him to do
Until..???  
my Prince comes

My employer said
Oh.. h*** no
He is stocking you..
He is after you..
He wants you..
You watch yourself
Just Let us know
We shall take care of him

Then as I got home
There was the man..
I said unto him
Leave.. me alone
For this.. is too strange
My Job knows about you
Says.. your a stocker
He then said..
No.. tis I am just a friend
Until.. time be
When Lord.. tells me differently
I said.. when??? 
When is this to be..
He smiled and said
You know when
Tis day.. such as a goodman comes
for Your hand.. until then..

God sent this man.. 
to take care of me
Follows me.. Making sure.. 
all is good... But Why??? 
Until???

God has His reasons..
