Love Bides Its Time

She was eighteen, I was twenty

The first time that we met

I was much too young and foolish

To recognize an Angel yet

For two years we walked common ground

So close, but far apart

No way of comprehending

She would one day own my heart

In time we went our separate ways

I wandered on my own

In the company of others

Always feeling so alone

I settled for some feelings

That were never as they seamed

I could never find the Angel

I saw only when I dreamed

And so the years just slipped away

The dream began to fade

Like lines in some forgotten script

The parts I never played

Until one day, to my surprise 

This Angel reappeared

She comforted my aching heart

The loneliness I feared

A friendship soon developed

That led to love so true

A dream of love I thought was gone

My tired heart, made new

And now I share my life with her

My heart, my love, my soul

This Angel is my everything

Her love has made me whole

Don't think that love won't find you

For it found a heart like mine

Love comes when you are ready

Until then, it bides its time
