IF I COULD CHOOSE

Passion is fickle
it comes when it wants to
from who it chooses

If I could convince it
to let me
choose
what a blessing it would be

Why him
I ponder

Who is blind 
to my heart

Whose words 
can not be trusted

Why him 
who knows not
what true love is

Who plays
dress up
like a child
in it’s back yard

If I could choose
it would be
someone like you

Who hears my words
and embraces them

Promising to embrace me
taking my heart
to a place safe and warm

Protected by your maleness
never tiring of my sight

Oh sweet one
that is where I would be
if only I could choose.
