The Choice Is Yours


See the moment

When she reaches out to you

Grab her hand

Pull her close

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Take the chance

Make a stand

Show her the truth

In your words

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For the moment

This is your chance

The key is ready

Waiting in her hands

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She’s already fallen

She sees the hope

It lingers

After you speak

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She sees your heart

It slowly shows

In the only way

Hers will know

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

See the fire

She’s built it

Just for you

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For a time

It slowly burns

Steady

On low

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The choice is yours

You can take her hand

Tell her how you feel

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just let the truth

Fan the flame

Magic growing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Or stand choosing

Letting the fire die

As you watch

Your dream

Walk away

  3. Well done. Really enjoy the images of opportunity and seizing the moment. I appreciate how you offer an image and resolve it a few stanzas later, like fire, then later fan the flame. Thanks, enjoyed 🙂
