You’re a voice from the past; you have found me
Traveling distance; irrelevant of time
You bring memories from an era pure and simple
You bring warmth… that envelops my mind
With you …the years are of no significance
I am young again; the vision of my past
Neither time nor hardship has touched me
I close my eyes praying this vision holds fast
You speak… with a heart filled with youthfulness
Now beating in the body of a man
Matured through time… and life experiences
Will you still desire the woman I now am?
Do you seek only the vision within your memory?
Do you seek only who you want me to be?
Or will you see your vision… “Within me”
Appreciate time’s path; appreciate… “Today’s”… me?
These questions though unspoken… seem to linger
As I wonder…intrigued by this voice from my past
Are we drawn together by… unresolved emotion?
Or through a bond that was always meant to last
Memories; Your voice…now surround me
I close my eyes; bringing the past into… today
Knowing that God… will bring forth what is intended
All things are possible… as we yield to His way
I close my eyes; allowing the past to come closer
The past’s significance within my future…is yet unknown
Putting my trust in… His voice… in my present
“What will be” …is known by God; alone
