You Are Chosen Poem by Kwenadi Gaaje

YOU ARE CHOSEN

Every time I hear your name
My heart clings for you
When I'm trying to ignore the fact that my heart chose you
The love I have for you
Forces me to be true to you..

Let not my confusion confuse you
Let not my distant heart distance the love we share
For my heart speaks the language of love
Whereas my mind speaks the language filled with faithless issues...

My heart chose you
Lack of intentions for you
Drowns me deep in pain
In trying to sustain my soul
My heart cannot maintain all of the demands....

You...
You are loved
Yet! Neglected
You demand more than I can offer
Baby! / If I could - I would...

Like a flower
My love is slowly fading
Each season you remindme of your expectations of me
The piece of me want to let go of you
While the other one wants to give in...

But will love maintain me?
Will this love grow me from this drowned sorrow?
If I may break this chain of love that tied us together
Will I stand back to watch the burning flames of love and heartbreak?

Will I stand to stare the pain in your eyes?
Will I be strong enough to hold on to the future with-out you?

You are chosen by my heart
Neglected by my soul
Hated by my mind
Wanted by my body to be close
Shall I break the chain of love
Or try to sustain this love triangle?

You are chosen and neglected at the same time.
