Ph: Love: The Choice Poem by Brian Johnston

Ph: Love: The Choice



Why does loneliness seem so attractive?
(Accepting her love as your fate)
Is there really much warmth in her arms?

Now just maybe I'm being proactive,
And come to the party too late,
Still I'm dazzled, I swear, by your charms.

Safety's not the path you think it to be,
Danger not just man's companion,
Or simplicity always God's voice.

The real world you see is never risk free,
Love's path not just a dark canyon,
But love begins and ends with a choice.

December 31,2013

If you would like to give this poem a rating, please do so in a comment that is separate from your regular comment if you leave one. Many poets, including myself, have been experiencing visits from hard to identify PH members who like to damage other's poem's ratings with illegal multiple votes of 1.0 and make a mockery out of normal voting. You voting in a comment field helps me to protect your rating of my poem which they wish to destroy. I know that this is a bit of extra work for you, but believe me it is appreciated.

Powerful perspective my friend on a subject that is easier to deal with in poetry that in reality. Well done!
