Merging Paths

She made a map of my heart
From all the crossroads that are set
And there is one that stands apart
On a corner where we met

Slowing down to a stop
Seeing signs as we get near
With more to give than just our way
To pass by and simply steer

Sometimes life will make you pause
There are reasons why you wait
When powers out of your control
Might make you hesitate

The moment I first saw her smile
With a gesture to lead the way
And from that map which she would make
We both were lead astray

Though never lost and side by side
Once our true love was found
Where we would learn to follow hearts
Wherever we are bound
