Where Did You Come From

Misplaced love’s disillusions Has long found it’s justification In my heart’s diminished expectations The lesson was worth it all Paid the price for my pains standing tall Creating a desire to construct indestructable walls ~~~ But ~~~ I found Contentment in 'my today' Dissipating couldhavebeen thoughts at bay Discovered in the sudden appearance of my now and always ~~~ Now ~~~ My “IS” He’s everything required Fulfilling most of my desires Strong, noble, honest and love inspired ~~~ THEN ~~~ You came along With your seem-so-right injection Fulfilling my fantasy of manly perfection Where did you come from Better still how did you get here Knowing your life is too filled for me Yet creating a longing of having you near Did God make one And sin separated us into twos And you decide to show up now When there is no space in my life for you ~~~ I know why my yesterdays Are in the yesteryears where they belong And I know that my today is my heart’s home So How is it that My tomorrows suddenly includes you In a world of dreams and wishes never to be true Perfection only a fantasy Your presence is confusing my reality Why and how did you invade my emotional security ~~~ Tis not fair That a tomorrow Appears disturbing the comfort of today Knowing within this lifetime there is no room Tis not fair My ‘split apart’ exist Appearing when the next best Has my heart and soul consumed ~~~ Where Were you When my life needed you Longed for you, dreamt of you As I sat Patiently In the Park ~~Waiting~~
