I Waited

I waited for so long for these tears to dry up,
pouring out of my heart, its too heavy,
this pain is enough.

I waited for so long for my wounds to heal,
created, destroyed and born again,
Yes my God is real.

I waited for every moment to regain what I lost
the battle, the fight, it was all for a cost
the cold in my heart that made me cold-hearted
I choose to live freely but from others i departed.

I waited for so long for my dream to come true
and it came the day that I laid my brown eyes on you
I feel renewed and at peace because youre now in my life
and that I will cherish my moment when it announced that 
Im your wife.

I waited all these years just to take a fresh breathe,
those secrects and pain I buried and kept
but it only made me wait for that day to set them free
and yes I did my friend, 
I got rid of the misery.

I waited and I waited but didnt have to wait too long,
now Im rejoicing and singing my beautiful song
that Im free and Im free and Lord Knows he set me free
I waited and I got it and now Im appreciating life within me.

"I Waited'
