How Beautiful

by brando31 - Not entered

the night took me
where i had not expected.
it just doesn't seem real to me,
now that i have reflected.

lost loves behind me,
i only wonder why.
but our Awesome God has given me the answers,
and to Him i thank everynight.

i never knew why,
he allowed such pain.
but i trusted in His works,
and now a greater love i've gained.

the others didn't care,
only for themselves.
but i can sense you do,
and i put their memory on the shelves.

i focus now on you,
of your glowing smile, of your melodious voice.
i admire your christian attitude,
i believe we're making the right choice.

i can sense the happiness in your voice,
and i can see the warmth in your smile.
you're everything i've ever wanted,
for you i'd walk a thousand miles.

you're all that i've asked for, and more.
your beauty is unsurpassed.
now i know why God has put me here,
and allowed suffering in the past.

because of you,
i can face the day.
and for your kindness and compassion,
i've always prayed.

i bow my head in gratitude,
thanking the Almighty on High.
I do not deserve this happiness,
i only deserve to die.

but for my sins,
He sent His Son.
and now He's given me you,
my soul is now one.

i sincerely like you,
and i know you feel the same way.
God has brought together,
and we'll be with Him, together, someday.
