Loved Deferred

The love that’s in my heart must stand a test,
You told me that you want to think and wait.
And though you say you think it would be best,
I cannot give you up to only hate.

I’m still resolved to pray and wait, you know,
I’ve thought a lot about the love we share.
While still it broke my heart to let you go,
Forever will you have my love and care.

You never see the good within your soul,
You’re haunted by the nightmares from your past.
I wish you’d let my love repair that hole,
And turn your back on all those fears at last.

There is a link between your soul and mine,
A bridge not yet explored, a spark still new.
I know you do not see that as a sign,
But I will not give up on love so true.
