together, for the long haul.

Right?

His head tilts, brow furrows.

 

Yes, but

I start

Yes but according to the

Church…

 

Would another person be a better partner

He wonders

Just because of some rings and words at the front of a church?

 

Ah, but my whole life is words at the front of a church…

But it isn’t.

And I sure didn’t ask for this

this blessed unrest

this life of presence

with families who are not my own

And I can’t let it go

it feels like me

like how I was created to be

consecrated by God

from before I could know
