I was going through my iPad reading some of my old notes I happen to come across some old poerty that I had written. I honestly had forgotten all about them because I haven't written poetry in quite some time. Back then I used poetry to express how I was feeling because I didn't know how too verbally praise Jesus for growth! This poem was inspired by the day I met my husband, we happened to cross each other's paths while I was interning for grad school. It was my last day and we ended working on a project together, we had seen each other a few times before but neither of us had spoken to one another. That day in a few hours we spent together I was really touched it was an instant connection. There was just something about him .... We were smitten secretly and I don't know about him but I didn't want that day to end ... Little did we know a few years later we would be man and wife. God certainly has a way of blessing you when you least expect it. I decided to share my poem with you I hope you enjoy it and are convinced that true love does exist.
{UNSPOKEN REQUEST}
Unspoken request
-On the day we met unbeknown to us both a new story had began,
The paths of two strangers crossed starting the flow of his pen,
writing the introduction the middle conclusion and the end .
Like the strong winds of a hurricane destroying everything in its way, our lives collided
that day was fulfilled an unspoken request.
A moment somewhere back in history a prayer was released ,
for God to hear and to add to his list
My wants so extensive and piled up over the years
Many tears as I feared he didn't hear me
Or just maybe something was wrong with me....
8 hours had turned into a symphony ,
The lyrics seemed written by or just for me
Time spent listening
My story different in many ways ....
His story a mystery mmm but on that day ...
My eyes were opened to a change, no longer holding unrealistic standards of the worlds perception
My affections grew ...
Nor he or I knew
Where this was going ...
Not allowing my mind to trip I decided to sit, and enjoy the ride
It was his eyes , that told me to stay
On today ...
I sit back and remember the multitude of times I prayed
praying many days for the one who would love me past my pain, the one who understands, comforts and is not afraid .
The one willing to embrace me just as who I am this day ....
The one who has lived but is willing to give, his life in Jesus name .
Than it hit me ,
That at some point in time as I prayed for him he prayed for me ...
where do we go from here
Unclear of the next page
And even if new chapters will continue to be made
Realizing At the end of the day ...
This moment is one i should embrace ,
I felt accepted.....
praying against deception ,
I desire a true and a honest to God connection....
Until the day my fate is revealed , I'll steal that moment in time and hold it as all mine
Praying an unspoken request
Will manifest
