I Choose To Stay

I CHOOSE TO STAY. I chose to stay. I wasn't coerced your way. A thousand and one choices I had But with you, I chose to stay till we return to sand. It wasn't a coincidence we crossed paths. Neither was our meeting a fabricated maths. I chose to stay. To be your favorite everyday. Oh my favorite one! Do not be shy showing me your scars, Do you think I don't have one? You think I'm pretty? You should see me without the stars. I've seen your scars, I say you're pretty. I've seen your stars, I say you're not petty. I choose to stay. To be your favorite everyday.
