I Choose

I choose not to die.
I choose not to be afraid.
I choose the light,
In the darkest of day.
I choose to live my life.
I choose to be free.
I choose true love,
Instead of what you’ve given me.
I choose to follow my heart.
I choose to do as I need.
I choose happiness,
In the worst of times.
I choose to not be controlled.
I choose to be myself.
I choose to live my life,
Instead of being a sheep.
I choose forgiveness.
I choose believing.
I choose intelligence,
In the dumbest of moments.
I choose to think.
I choose to breathe.
I choose to be me.
