    I think you're doing it backwards. First figure out what rhythm you want for your piece, then write the music. My impression is that you don't have a lot of fundamental music theory background -- some reading materials may help. – Carl Witthoft Mar 18 at 12:29

Get a 'drum box' or the digital equivalent. Set up a 4/4 rhythm. Play your song to the beat and see if it fits!
