It’s too clear now, painfully clear
You’ve shown me the next steps in my dance
My feet are slow to move
The music pulls me down
You must know how hard this is
I’ve dance with him, like this, for so long
It’s hard to let him go
Even when I’m twirling into Your arms
Gently, You pull me away
Bring me into the circle of Your arms
And teach me the dance You’ve made
The steps come painfully
I don’t want this!
Silently, I fight against You
Go against the music,
Move away from You
I’m dancing with him again
Everything’s going wrong
We don’t match up
Our steps are slow and jerky
Finally I look to You
With the same grace as before
You pull me towards You
“Dance with Me,” You whisper
“Yours will come soon.”
I don’t want this heartmate
I want to dance with him
To feel the thrill of his touch
See the love in his eyes
Whenever I’m with him…
Why does my heart break?
Why to I loathe to feel his touch
Even when I crave it so?
My feet refuse to move to Your rhythm
I’m still fighting You
My heart’s a complete wreck
I feel so broken…
How can You have something better
Than what You’re telling me to leave?
Words finally fall from my mouth:
“I can’t do this anymore.”
Ashamed, I peek up into Your face
Worried to see Your reaction
I knew this from the start
Unsure why it took so long
I need You to take over
Your steps are mine to dance.
Even if I dance alone
And another draws close to him
Even if my heart never ceases its aching
For the closeness we once shared
I cannot go back
You’ve brought me to a new place
One in which I can finally dance
You’ve shown me a better plan – Yours
Even if You broke me in the process
You’re healing me to be the woman who
One day may catch the eye of the man
You’ve created to dance these steps
To complete them…not to change
Even as I stand alone
Time passing slowly, painfully
I watch couples dance around me
Even him, twirling a new partner
As my heart begins to break anew
You hold me in Your arms
And remind me of Your plan –
How You’re constructing a dance
One filled with Your grace and love
Created for me and my husband
Filled with purity and innocence
“Only a little while,” You whisper
“He will come soon.”
I rest in Your arms
Unable to stand on my own
I lean into Your embrace
I am Yours forever.
