I asked God

carlosv1101

I asked God
That if you weren't meant for me to show me signs
To help me adjust to the fact that there's a possibility
That your love is not the perfect cup of tea
Time flew by, I was going on with my life
Hopeful that the love we once shared would arise
But six months without you gave me a choice
And I used my strongest voice
And shouted to the world
That I was ready to let you go
And like a page from a book,
I let the memory of what we once were fly away
Like a bird freely in the sky
I had to accept that our souls were no longer intertwined
Our flame was now two rivers
Our summer turned to icy winters
But I didn't let that hinder,
what I had to do
I began planning my new life without you
Six months went by, and at first
I cried and cried
My bones were like water
My heart was frozen
But the day I said goodbye for good
I put myself first
For better or worse
I was my own true love

Here comes the day
I graduate from college
I made it through and i am ready to continue my life without you
Little did I know you were leaving your trails
On the day that my sun was supposed to be shining bright,
Your eyes locked into my soul once again and blinded those around us,
Our love was shining brighter than 1000 suns
Right then in there our rivers were one flame
Our winters were one bright light
You came back to my life and I,
I became whole again
Now I'm ready to fight a million wars with you
Now I know our love is something true

We began to talk after and it was like I had you again
My friend came back and I'm ready to let you in
But then you became distant again
I began to think,
Why did destiny bring you back to me if we weren't going to be one again?
Was I the one moving too fast?
Did you come back to me just to hurt me?
All these questions and still, I loved you with all my might

Time has passed by, and what should be me moving on day by day
Is me loving you more and more
I reached out to you and no response,
God what is going on?
Why is it that me mind says go
But my heart says stay
My heart loves him deeper and deeper,
So much that I had to question how can one love another with so much power and strength?
How does a heart stay so hopeful when a mind doesn't know what to do?

So now I sit here, working on my future
Feeling that I should stay strong and remain hopeful
Because it might be worth the years I've spent
With you in first place in my heart
Amazing how a love and flow through your heart and run in the blood all over your body
And instead of making you weak, it gives you all the strength in the world
Amazing how destiny can place someone in your life
Time and time again
And although we forget what happened in lives past,
One thing that stays is the love that we had for one another, time and time again

My greatest love, I feel you in my heart and all over me
Let's show the world what we're made of,
I've loved you a million lives past and I'll love you a million lives more
We've fought for our love before and we'll do it again
I am no longer afraid to love
I'm not afraid to stand with you and for you
Only time will tell how you'll do the same for me
