Why

One day I will at long last see your face.
I will stare into the eyes I've dreamt about
And kiss the lips of which I could only imagine.
On that day you will hold me in your arms, strong and safe

You seem so far away. 
Why must we wait so long?
In my heart is a chasm that only you can fill.
Are we on different paths waiting to intersect?

I pray on that day we know in an instant,
That when our eyes meet there is no question.
You will be the one I've waited for.
I will be the one for whom you've saved yourself.

God, let our paths cross soon.
My heart cries out for the love he waits to give.
Compressed for so long it waits to erupt,
Covering him in my passion.

Until then may Your Son be my love.
May He fulfill the longing of my heart.
Until the day when I see his face.
Until my dreams are dreams no more.
