Discovering Love

I hid myself from life today

for I wished to go a merry way

before its weight would bear me down

to cover my face in a dark frown.

Life found me in my hiding place

surprising me with a brand new face

that I had not known until just then

though I had seen a thousand men.

Life showed me how to love a man

though I had doubted I ever can

when all I knew was harsh rejection,

this one made it past every objection.

When life turned to love, it became deer

and I wished it in future to always be near

I held on tightly with all my might

finding reason at last, to put up a fight.

I could have spared myself the trouble

his efforts matched mine at least a double

his heart with mine became entwined

with a love that would forever bind.

If you have not yet found your mate

simply be patient until the intended date

for it will find you unexpectedly

sit tightly now, youll watch and see.
