I didn’t need a dress
or an aisle to
enter
into the future
God’s planned for me
I didn’t need permission
or counseling to
know
God’s will for my
life with you forevermore
I didn’t need a ring
or vows written
down
in my heart’s
the truth of our love
all I needed was God
telling me to
step
into your arms
where He’s writing the rest
about love
they said
‘you’ll know’
but I didn’t know
until I knew
for everyone
it’s different
for me
it was a hug
that embraced
my heart
how do you let go
of something so real
I questioned
I cried
I listened to God
and asked my love
to marry me
love is looking
into the eyes of your husband
across the way
wanting to climb over the table
to get to him
but you don’t
because you know
he’s not going anywhere
now I know
and can tell others
‘you’ll know’
and then watch them
not know
until they know
I’ve found what I was waiting for
right in front of me
I wonder how often that happens
to look for something
in plain sight
to search for something
you step over
to reach for something
in your hand
God’s been teaching me
through struggle
and revealing Himself
through love
Disney had it wrong
church is something different
but straight from God
won’t be denied
friendship in love
love in friendship
simply given
complicated to receive
so many questions of
should I
if I
what about
but none of them trump
what He says
none of it disguises
His desire in my heart
love is a choice
choosing to love is an option
