Because I could not choose to Love –

I was chosen by she –

I took her hand and walked with her –

A whole new world opened to me –

As we walked, I saw what I could have –

The joy, the trust, the sympathy –

It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen –

It was all my heart desired –

But the end of the road was dark –

There was pain, there was loss –

I wished I had never greeted Love –

I felt that Love was not worth this pain, but she still held my hand –

As we walked out of the darkness –

And my emotions calmed down –

Love showed me the memories –

Of the path before the dark –

I missed the sun and I missed the joy –

Sometimes I still felt the darkness –

Sometimes I forgot the light –

But Love still held my hand –
