I understand now....it’s become so clear,
I see the way she looks at him and I remember seeing those same eyes,
They seemed to be eyes that spoke one thing,
“I want to know more about you, you interest me.”
Alas...now seeing that gaze set on another forces my senses,
Better to see those eyes and not be receiving what I misunderstood,
I understand now...it hurts but I understand.
She doesn’t love me and now I know,
God has someone in store for me and someone for her,
I just have to be patient.
Lord, give me the patience I struggle to maintain.
