Choosing and then
Allowing yourselfTo be chosen
Still affords me
A choice
For the gift that I seek to give
Is that gift in
Which you desire most
To be given
Yet the eagerness
Of your existence
Is still the abbreviated
Longings of your heart
The slender unfolding
Of your love then
Will forever
Shatter
My illusions
About why
Any other man
Would not love you!
