I Chose

I know you wished I had chosen you, For I wished you had chosen me, It's not always the things that comes back that's yours, But the ones that stay despite the uncertainty. I saw no love in your eyes, But I saw all your fancy, Staying was not an option, It would have destroyed us eventually. Looking back, I made my choice, A choice from my shackles to break free, You didn't tie me down, you could never tie me down, For love isn't a captivity. I know you wished I picked you, loved you, Like an act from something flimy, But life isn't like in the reels, You don't get to always be happy, I chose to break my heart, Bury it eternally, I chose to break it all, I chose reality. I chose reality.
