Signs and Images God Makes Amazing

When I look at you, I have the worst case of Déjà Vu
Because you remind of a certain pair,
The ones I call the Terrible Two.
That smile, I can’t get enough of but is it because I find it so memorable?
It’s the same smile that I think of when my heart feels terrible.
The smile that told me lies to my face
Said my love could never be replaced
But it was…all over Myspace.

To some degree you both are of the same caliber.  
You know what to do to woo her,
My heart.
Both stand for the same thing,
Except that he was a boy, I see you as a king,
What God intended you to be.

I first responded to your familiarity,
Then I had to pray for some clarity.
Why would I my heart desire you
If you remind me of the Terrible Two?
I know what it is, the light in you.

Lately God has been blessing me in more ways than one.
The first was when he sacrificed his one and only son,
More recently he sent me you.
A God fearing man who takes time
To listen to care to laugh with to find.
That, all by itself, is why my heart desires you.

Not knowing where this is going
Not worried who ends up knowing
I just pray that you continue to let your light shine
It helps guide me when I can’t find mine.
