NUN IN A BROWN HABIT

You don’t have to tell me
what’s on your mind
from your faith, I gather
you are checking out

If you feel you sinned, don’t!
I will question that
there’s no shame in having
such a pious heart . . .

And so, you were
young, naïve, a virgin
and you offered all your being
like a maiden in a romance flick
And then he left . . .

One more time...

kneeling down and praying
you feel your time’s up
you fear that love is long gone
and you’re counting the days

You’ll be a nun
in a brown habit
flipping those rosemary beads

Shedding more tears
after night praying
is that the life
of your dreams?

From the vesper
to the lauds
you’ll be searching
for the light
and you’ll wonder
was that right
feelings never die

One more time...

kneeling down and praying
you feel your time’s up
you fear that love is long gone
and you’re counting the days
