I Choose To Love You Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Love, how sweet and pure thou art
Thou hast captured my heart from the start
With every beat, I feel thy strong hold
Thou art the story my heart wants to unfold
Amidst all the chaos and the pain
I choose to love thee, for thou art my bane
In this world, where hate seems to reign
Thy love is my shelter, my peaceful terrain
Thy laughter, a symphony to my ears
Thy touch, a comfort that calms my fears
In thy embrace, I find my solace
Thou art my heaven, my saving grace
For in thee, I have found my true home
And where thou art, I'll never feel alone
I choose to love thee, in every way
Until the end of time, come what may
So here I am, declaring to thee
My love for thee, forever it shall be
For in this life, I choose to love you
My heart, my soul, my everything, my true.
