His life had settled
He was finally at peace
His pain has been eased
He again felt free

She took her time
This storm was patient
She looked for his weakness
Finding a way he can be awakened

Before he knew it
A storm began to brew
What he wanted was a summer rain
What he got was a monsoon
This isn't a bad thing because she brings change to my life.  This storm might be raging but a love is beginning to be forged.
He doesn't see
Her as an angel
The one she used to be
He see's her true colors
A false rainbow she tries to be
His first love
Is in ruins
His second
Being build
Sweet voices of children
echo through the sanctuary.
Tiny hands shake silver bells,
as the room is full of parents' smiles.
Children singing songs of Christmas cheer.
"Away in a manger."
Is heard loud and clear.
Children's voices,
like the voices of angels.
Float up to God above.
As He smiles down upon them.
For each child He dearly loves.
Sweet voices.
Angel voices.
Of little children.
Echo through the sanctuary.
At Christmastime.
What a gift it is.
To all who hear them.
Angel Voices.
She said yes
She touches his arm
Laughs at his stupid jokes
Smiling every time she looks at him

She said yes
She invited him out to her job
He showed up expecting only a moment of her time
She gave him so much more

She accepted an invite
Saying yes when it's her only day off
Spending the day with him
Sharing a sport they both love

This friendship she wanted
Had turned into something more
How could this be
Her beauty
His charm
Their perfect fit
She has taken his pain and dismantled it and formed it into a love so real and unscathed
We flirted but you were taken
Our connection fueled a secret
That secret we couldn't keep
We decided it wasn't worth it
Not wanting to cause us pain
Letting the years grow between us

We are friends with a past
Both single and ready to mingle
Our glances always drifting back
Locking eyes we took a chance
One that won't be clouded by deception
Exposing us to the world
