Choice

She's waiting to be a choice, not an option

By Abi Rose TravisPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

Will she always be just an option

The woman who is wanted

But never chosen

The one who always goes all in

Only to be left in the shadows

Her heart forgotten in shallows

Her mind always left wondering

Day dreams of dancing when it rains

Mornings full of love that sustains

Nights that satisfy

Words that clarify

That she is not just an option

She wants to be a choice

But she Cant find the words

She cant find her voice

Because she would choose you

She would scream it from the rooftops

She would make it known who holds her heart

But to do that now… not smart

Because that chance that you don’t choose her

Will break her

Unmake her

Totally and completely devastate her

But she wont put that on you

She wont force you to choose

No matter what she has to loose

She will wait in the shadows of your life

Her heart ready to feel the knife
