Fairly Seasoned Love: I Choose You (Part 2): My Destiny

Sometimes those of us who are married knowingly or unknowingly put on the appearance that it is constant pleasure and bliss. I have come to find that it is not, that in fact marriage can be very difficult for many, many reasons. I Choose You has two parts, the first, featured here, really speaks my heart on the intensity of the struggle. As part of this series describing Fairly Seasoned Love, I feature I Choose You (Part 2): My Destiny

I Choose You (Part 2): My Destiny

I choose you

Against all logic and reasoning

Against the world’s view

The statistics, the rumors, the “facts”

I choose to forgo the urge to give in to the pompous nudgings of tales passed down to me of old

Things I was lead to believe

Yet unbiblical

I choose you

Rather than distractions of everything else

From shows, the web and even the kids

Instead I choose to look at you

To acknowledge you

Not only with my presence

But with my presence

You.

The vows I said to

The one I first knew

But beau?

Yoohoo!

It is I you used to woo

Who knew

That like the dew

It would evaporate away too...

Yet every new day

The dew once again graces the morning view

I choose you from beginning to end

For you are my friend though sometimes I feel like you’re the enemy

Choosing to hope upon hope that together we are meant to reach purpose

I choose you

Not only for that

But my destiny is linked to you

And I am reaching destiny

So you’re not going anywhere

Till death do us part

We are bound together heart to heart

From you I will never depart

Especially if I’m smart

Our intertwining is art

Painted on the canvas of God

Lacing a path that we are destined to take

I choose you

The best choice I’ve ever made

For the difficulties of today cannot compare to the joys of tomorrow

So I choose you

I choose my destiny
