Love Poem: The Choice

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.
