I can't stand weeping for another day, but what else am i supposed to do? I lost the only one that I truly care about. I want roman, i want him so bad. But i need to be strong as well, i need to learn how to move on without him.

And that means doing what i have been doing before i met roman. Getting back to the raw streets of philly and preaching the word.

"Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand." I say through my megaphone but somehow my voice has lost its enthusiasm, and the blazing sun banging its heat down on us doesn't help the matter

"The Lord has made the Gospel so simple that even a child can understand it-" I continue as Elijah hands out some flyers to anyone passing by us, by now three people have stopped their walks to look at us curiously, that's what keeps me going.

"Once you accept Jesus Christ as the messiah, you are saved eternally. Not for a few months or until you sin again but forever! That's why we love him so much." I try not to tear up at my own words but when i realise how distant I've become from Christ since my relationship ended it makes me want to break down.

"Our father in heaven loves us so much that even though we sinned against him he still saved us, not because he has a loving heart but because God is love!" He is love, my first love before anyone else... Maybe if i come back to him, it will fix this hole in my life.

One of the men who stood watching me walk up to me when i drop my megaphone to my side so defeated at everything that's been going on. His hair is so blonde is almost white and his tanned skin balances out his dark brown eyes.

Elijah watches attentively as the man gets closer to me, just staring deep into my eyes, i almost want to back up but his eyes have a strange hold on me,

"Everything is going to be alright." He speaks confidently, the tone in the voice of this complete stranger makes my heart beat so much faster but the gentle smile he gives me warms my heart.

"How did you know?" I whisper in disbelief, he grins at me tapping a heavy hand on my shoulder twice before walking on his way.

I don't know if it's by his touch or by his words but somehow i have more energy to preach Gods word. It's going to be alright, sure I'm alone but i have God on my side. I can do This without roman, some how....

"The grace of God abounds in our lives making it possible for us to live eternally. We have Jesus Christ! He is the key to our salvation, he is our Access to the father, can't we understand that?" I say through the microphone stepping forward from the area of our philly statue of Tamanead.

Cars zip right past us onto the motorway beeping their horns mockingly at us but all that matters is the salvation of those wanting souls.

"You ma'am." I point to a woman looking onwards to us,

"Do you want to be saved today? To give up a life of-" i grip onto my lower stomach when a sharp pain hits me. But like the woman i was preaching to the pain leaves me within a blinks of the eye.
