Understanding
Our lives were not
meant to be, Lived alone and yet here I
rest, By choice in a tranquil garden, Of
God waiting with my request.
Alone and unhappy, wistful, With
a longing to just belong, I'd love united in
marriage, To a God-given love
lifelong.
I am plagued by many
questions, Everywhere I go and it's
hard, Not to become angry when I, Don't
have a love so I'm on guard.
Waiting nearly a whole
lifetime, Believing God will soon
provide, His very best without a
doubt, I'm so lost and feeling
denied.
Incessant reminders present, And
continually fuel, My longings and desires
each, Day, year by year being cruel.
I grew up expecting to
one, Day marry my true love sent by, God
maneuvering through all life's, Challenges
until now so why.
And what do I do when
someday, Takes forever literally, Why must
I wait this long when I, See those being
blessed constantly.
When morning comes I pray I've
some, Answers with more
understanding, Wondering why I must wait
for, Love, all I'm misunderstanding.
Time's past exhausting my
dreams and, Just one beautiful desire, To
be blessed with little children, To love and
hold close and inspire.
I'm only one still small voice in,
This world, frustrated and
lonely, Questioning why I've had to
wait, So long for my true love only.
Father, You know I'm
unfulfilled, In love and I need Your
reply, Because You know all things and
I, Don't understand, I don't know
why.
In God's little garden near
a, Peaceful stream of serenity, I grasp
close unexpectedly, Embracing
serendipity.
