Coincidence

I've wrote this story several times, trying to make it rhyme.
But it seems the words don't come out that way, and so I bide my time.

I wanted to tell a story of how you changed my life.
But none of the words are rhyming adding burden to my strife.

I wanted something meaningful that had a poetic flow.
But all I have is this story, which they will never know.

I don't know if I should write it, these words I speak for you.
It's something that I pray for, simply wanting it to come true.

It's just a simple story, of how I fell in love.
And I swear you were an angel sent from up above.

Maybe I'm not ready or maybe it's not clear.
But one thing is for certain, God has sent you here.

It seems you were always there before.
To pick me up from upon the floor.

The way you spoke to us that night.
It allowed me to step from the dark into the light.

Perhaps I preferred the shade.
Because when you left the light began to fade.

I've tried to do it on my own, but it seems I'm not that strong.
The demons seem to tempt me, so I don't know right from wrong.

The second time I saw you, I was overwhelmed with fear.
Never knowing that one night, you would be so near.

So I accepted it for what it was not able to understand.
You told me you were coming back so here I will stand.

My thoughts of you became so strong.
But God knew my intentions were all wrong.

When you didn't come back I began to think,
Perhaps I'd never see you again and my soul began to sink.

I told God I came here for Him,
And that I wanted to rid my life from sin.

And there you were as if waiting,
My heart would jump as if anticipating.

We talked for hours that night
And somehow it just felt so right.

I thought God was rewarding me,
But he had a plan I just couldn't see.

We lost touch with one another but I have not forgot.
The way you made me feel that night the feelings I have sought.

But that wasn't His intention I need to understand.
That you were only there those times to lend me a helping hand.

I fell into temptation I need you in my life.
To rid myself of this burden and bury all my strife.

My words become repetitive and I know not what to say.
I'm hoping God will lead me into the direction of His way.

God has tested me and I have failed.
And only when I pass, I know love will prevail.

So now that I have passed the test,
I can only pray and hope for the best.

I know God sends his messengers in mysterious ways,
But I never thought that you would be the one, to come to me that day.
