The Choice Poem by Claire Ann Sansolis

I chose the easy way to escape with you
Since being alone no longer make sense
Everyday I find myself just gravitating
I cannot bear to go home without you

If loving you is an easy escape
Then it was an intentional and well thought of
For never was I ready to give up everything
Until it was finally you

15 years forward to this relationship
I saw the wisdom of that escape
When I risked everything to be with you
I chose a life together with you

Everything is a conscious choice, that is love
You chose the person not the feeling
You choose the good with the bad
You choose to forgive, and move on together
