Until You
I never knew life could be so full of pain,
until I met the man who made me complete.
Now only memories of love shall remain.
The minute he swept me off my cold feet,
I knew life just would never be the same.
He’s given me true passion o, so sweet.
When he’s around my romance cannot tame,
for this is why I was born to love but one.
He is my burning ember lighted flame.
When we were young we birthed a sickly son,
he was too weak to live on earth; he died.
Then Ella came and life had just begun.
When Karen had committed suicide,
he vowed to always be there for just me.
So many nights he held me as I cried.
When I feel like a weeping willow tree,
he is my stardust falling from the sky-
he is the miracle that made me see.
For I am but a woman who can’t lie,
a girl who craves adoring days that shine.
I promise I shan’t ever say goodbye.
God always knew that He would make you mine-
When he encompassed us in love’s design.
