I choose to hope, choose to believe,
Longing denied, heart won’t concede.
See her face and heart skips a beat,
Longing for when lips will meet.
Alone we both deal with our pain,
Heartache and scars, are our prison chains.
Together we will be so free,
Each holds a key, our chance to be.
To be happy, to be alive,
Once united, we too will thrive.
Darkness and fears now grip your soul,
Spiraling back to days of ole.
Voices taunt and the screams do haunt,
Only deny you what you want.
Fears strangle your hopes and dreams,
Destined for pain, alone you scream.
The voices lie, and crush your hope,
Not equipped , how do you cope?
The ways you know, kill your very soul,
Questions echo, where will you go?
There is a choice you’ve yet to make,
You can choose to love for love’s sake.
There are risks and sure there are fears,
Laugh at them in our golden years.
The choice is yours alone to make,
Confusion mounts, your soul does shake.
Take a chance or submit to fear,
All I know is I love you dear.
