Impetuous Me - Poem by Ray Lucero

How dare I fall in love with you
When God pushed us apart
Although I felt my soul was due
Harsh words pierced my naked heart

How dare I fall in love with you
My heart did say with naiveté,
Why not rekindle our love anew
As summer Sun illumes each day

How dare I fall in love with you
Although the stars above align
As comets hail my love for you
Confirming you are mine,

How dare I fall in love with you
Because…
My heart and soul know well what’s true
