I would have chosen you.

Hello everyone! How was your Easter? For us Orthodoxs, it hasn't come yet. It's on Sunday. Anyway, today I thought of coming back with another writing of mine...Tell me what you think❣️

•••I would have chosen you•••🥀
A candle is melting right in front of me...
How blind can this one be?
The poet is rotting on his own...
And his absence has me alone...
The fear is conquering my cell
and I'm trapped inside this Hell.
Should I kill you and then leave?
It's my fault that I believe.
I've been praying, take a clue!
I would have chosen you.
Since the night betrayed me
All my dreams have failed me.
And the demons have escaped,
from the cage that is heart-shaped.
And the blood, it still runs cold
for the soul that you have sold.
Save myself or save you two?
I would have chosen you.
I am fine, I am lying,
every night, I shall be crying.
And the candle now is dead,
just forget what I said.
In fact, I know you will.
It meant nothing but a thrill.
If you see me kind of blue,
holding paper and glue,
I would have chosen you.
It's the love song I have torn,
it's the rose of the thorn.
If you wonder what it'd be,
Dear, you should have chosen me.
It's a phrase, do you see?
Something I swear is true:
"I would have chosen you.
I am broken but I do,
Over life, I choose you."
