I Did Not Choose You

You were chosen for me

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

I did not choose you

I did not pick you out of a line

I did not grab you off a shelf

Like a loaf of bread at the corner bodega

But God made you for me

Molding you from the dreams

That make up my heart

I did not choose you

But I thank God every day that he made you for me
