I beheld her long ago in a dream,
Her presence flowed through me like a shimmering stream.
I didn’t want to wake, but I had no choice,
I could have dreamt for eternity, listening to her voice.
That’s how I felt, as my body rested still,
The thought of her gave my heart a thrill.
It beat steady, happily, and true,
With her presence, it could never turn blue.
The night had ended, as I heard the clock’s alarm,
My eyes opened, and I stretched out each arm.
As I stood upon my feet,
I realized I could hear my heart beat.
It wasn’t a sound I had ever heard before.
This time; this morning, it was so much more.
It felt like a cage filled with doves suddenly set free,
It felt like dolphins overcoming the current of a raging sea.
I knew I had to find her, but I had to find myself first,
If I didn’t get control, the pressure would make my heart burst.
It would take time, change, and much prayer,
But with hope in God, I would eventually get there.
Even though I have not found her heart yet,
The Lord of My Life has my path set.
I just have to walk down that path laid out for me,
Step-by-step, following what God can already see.
It will take faith and diligence to stay in my lane,
It may even bring forth trials of agonizing pain,
It it fine though and it will be worth it in the end,
When I am close to her, and she becomes my best friend.
A worthy journey can sometimes challenge our heart,
But in truth, it was already strong enough from the start.
It just has to learn to use its beautiful strength,
Pumping and beating merrily, no matter the length.
Closer and closer to the finish line,
Soon we will be together and her heart will meet mine.
My heart will joyfully sing a beautiful song,
May my time with her be meaningful and long.
I want to hold her tightly and close to my side,
Together in Jesus, we shall together abide.
Our hearts will grow as one, like a tall, unwavering tree,
No wind will break us, or take away from our glee.
The things of this world shall have no power over our love,
They have no claim over that which has been ordained from above.
Alas, I have just a little further to go,
The closer I get, the more I can feel my heart glow.
It is Jesus in me, walking with me down the path,
Taking each step with me, victoriously guiding me beyond God’s wrath.
Together we shall soon arrive at her heart,
Even though Jesus has been there from the start.
He will join us together, as the three of us meet,
As one in Jesus, shall together our hearts beat.
