I Choose You

 

I didn’t fall for you

I wasn’t tripped

Didn’t drift

Didn’t slip

I didn’t accidentally feel

Emotions

Based on the sensation of your lips

The vast oceans in your hips

This bliss

Was written in Sanskrit

Before our first glance

First dance

Our first kiss

Before we were born

And when we’re dead and gone

This love will live on

A silhouette of

Your perfect frame

Whispered my name

Across time

Divinely designating

You

Mine

Your perfect imperfections

Cherished

I live to hear the sweet octaves

Of your voice

My soul is convinced

Not because you seduced

 

See… love is a choice

 

As our darks become grays

Every second of every day

The scent of our love shall remain new

Thru

Ups, downs…

Highs…. Lows…

Because my heart depends on it

 

Love is a choice

 

And I’ll always choose you

Not an accident but a choice. Love, a mending choice. (I'm humbled by the more elaborate delivery).

This is beautiful.

I am quite sure you can get paid for this.

Have you heard of Blue Mountain Arts? ( a greeting card company)

Please Google it and look at their submission guidelines.

I have sold 2 cards to them. They are quite legitimate. I would put money on this one of yours being published by them.
