Almost exactly a year...

Since this whole thing got sticky...
When did I give way to fear?
When did I become "unlike me"?

Well, he's here now...
And You... You were always here.
I feel comforted somehow
Knowing that it's been a year.
Time presses on...
You reign supreme
Orchestrating, by Your hand,
More than I can see.

I'm more in love with him now
Than when he first appeared...
Reminds me of my love for YOU...
--Growing deeper with each year.

Thank You for my Superman
--his friendship is such a gift from You, Dear Lord
I'm clinging to Your perfect plan
Father, help me love You and him more and more...

I wish that all could see him...
I wish that all could see...
Yet none can truly know what all this means to me.

Sometimes I feel alone in this...
Sometimes I feel alone...
But I'm so grateful for him, God, and his heart to love You, Lord.

Do they see how much he loves me?
Surely there's no guy like him... No exageratin'
--I've been waitin' all my life for such a guy as him...
And, Lord, she says it's not Your plan... that this gift
of love is NOT from Your hand...
but, Lord, You are not partial
--You speak to me too...
and You told ME that He will be my man --my precious gift from You.

How can this be?
I don't deserve such a treasure...
I smile, I sigh...
I'd ask why, but I know that Your goodness is the factor.

Father, You are so good to me...
I love You more --even because of he...
The more he encourages my love and my laud...
The more I want to be with this man of God.

I stand more firmly in my conviction...
I know You're here, and I know You're in this.
Show me how to carry out Your plan, Dear God...
Open my parents' hearts to receive these thoughts...

Tomorrow is a new day...
I can't wait to see him :-)
I love him...

I love YOU... Thank You for Superman...

In the words of Regina Spektor...

"I hear in my mind

All these voices...

I hear in my mind

All these words...

I hear in my mind

All this music

and it breaks my heart...
and it breaks my heart."



*sigh*

I love you, Byron. . . And that won't change. . .
