A Shadow At the End of the Tunnel

I may not be able to explain it...
But its just the way I feel..
Feels so good yet scary....
Belly filled with butterflies and bees...

I saw the light at the end of the tunnel,
in it a silhouette of a Princess... 
The face is blurry, But the shape I do educe.
A temptress she may be...but in this light I shall ingress, 
She is the woman I am meant to choose.

I am in love, or is it lust?
Are my hormones and brain to blame?
I feel my heart bound to combust...
...in this liaison's flame.

For it is not good that the man should be alone;
That's why a best fitting helper was moulded.
Two are better than one, with her I'll build a home...
Where my love will be unfolded.

Therefore I tell you, 
I will walk towards this light,
Her face will be visible to me.
I shall bend a knee with every step...
For whatever I ask in prayer will be MINE.

Very expressive work..Not many pray for the wife that God intends for them to have even though that is the best way to find a mate..God's choice will never let you down..Enjoyed reading your very unique and creative work..Sara

Thank you Sara, our generation (teens/young adults) we fail to involve God in our major-even daily- decisions...
