“I Shall Abide My Time.”

I gave toward all with an open heart.
With eyes wide open but I didn’t see.
I was chasing you through other people’s hands.
Sure I was benevolent, but filled with pain.
Because you’re divine, I shall abide my time.

I found it easy giving my career away.
Yet to this day, I am sadly alone.
Longing for your love, prenup, and wedding ring.
But you all were totally unfair with me.
Because you’re divine, I shall abide my time.

So I took myself out of the line.
Although I have given to all of you.
My longing has always been your sweet love.
Unfortunately you turned and walked away from me.
Because you’re divine, I shall abide my time.

I lost more than you can ever imagine.
I’ve lived without a place to call home.
Yet I have not given away to despair.
Sure, I have made my share of mistakes.
Because you’re divine, I shall abide my time.

I’ve had my fill of spending life alone.
Wallowing within my heart’s pain silently at home.
Unable to get beyond my hurt-filled past.
Cast aside like any pair of worn shoes.
Because you’re divine, I shall abide my time.
