I Choose You

I choose you.

Just as you are.

Perfectly round, angular, decisive.

I choose your ridges, I choose your creases, I choose your dimples and your frowns.

I choose your infatuating giggles and your heart melting tears.

I choose your questions and your unyielding wonder.

I choose your pain. Your heart aching past, your terrors that should never be relived.

I choose your stories. Not the ones that chain you but the ones that free you.

I choose your home. Your heart. Your love.

I choose you Shereen.

I choose you.
