My shining light

One Sunday two weeks later after we first met, I was driving home from church, a message came on my phone, excitement, joy and laughter filled in my heart, when I realized it was you, couldn't believe my eyes, almost driving off the road, cause I was so excited.

Back and forth exchanging words, Through text, still couldn't believe you texted me, not knowing just how much my world was about to be rearranged, every text, a promise, every smile, a dream, about to be built on life, of love on that Sunday gleam.

Through texting each other, praying to God, please let her be my shining light, Through the self doubts, telling myself there's no way, she would want a man like me, hearing your voice my light, that was covered by my dark shadows, your light shined over it, with my world, my love, realizing that day, you were my shining light,

While texting each other, doing my laundry, trying to build up the nerve, to ask if I could call you, then the next text, you asked if we can talk on the phone, without even thinking, I called you, and while your phone was ringing, telling myself to not say something stupid

Through texting each other, praying to God, please let her be, my shining light, Through the self doubts, telling myself, there's no way she would want a man like me, hearing your voice my light that was covered by my dark shadow, your light shined over it, with my world, my love, realizing that day, you’re my shining light.

Gina my darling, every word you texted me and said, that day, I knew you were, the love of my life, because of you Through my doubts and prayer, I learned to stand, forever, I'll cherish you, my love, with every beat, for in your heart, I've found my home, I found my retreat.

Through texting each other, praying to God, please let her be my shining light, Through the self doubts, telling myself, there's no way she would want to be with a man like me, hearing your voice, my light that was covered by my dark shadows, your light shined over it, with my world, my love, realizing that day, you were my shining light
