I Choose Love

So I tell you
Go ahead
Look down
Step aside
Turn around
Walk away

Do what you wish

I choose love

At times
I want to hurt you
Forget you
Disown you
Break you
But I won’t

For I choose love

And on those dark days
Were you have left me
Broken
Breathless
Frightened
Lonely
Shattered

I choose love

This broken heart
Breathless soul
Frightened child
Lonely vessel
Shattered spirit

I choose love

Oh how you live in my bones
It would be so easy
To be like you
But I won’t

For I choose love

To give love
Show love
Crave love
Accept love
Feel love

So I tell you
Go ahead
Look down
Step aside
Turn around
Walk away

I choose love

Spit
Tare
Break
Stomp

On love
On me
Do what you wish

But I choose love
