A Longing Heart
Dear restless heart,
I’m falling for you,
But I’m trying not to.
I’m falling for you,
But I will never be with you.
Not because you don’t know I exist,
But because we have different ways to live.
Unequally yoked is not an option,
And this isn’t a Romeo and Juliet scene.
It will never be,
And that’s fine with me…
But is it though?
I’m just trying to let you go,
But when I fall, I fall hard.
And this is damaging to my heart.
But patience is the key
When it comes to happiness and suffering –
And when it comes to purity and all that love can be,
Patience is the key.
So then I will wait
For the man God has entrusted to me
To encourage, support, and love freely.
So then I will wait
For the man God will give to me
In holy matrimony.
- D.A.
