Would you choose him over a billion dollars?
I choose him over money
I choose him over fame
He is not a goal that I want to gain
Would you choose him over a billion dollars?
Or all of the money in the world?
I choose him, not just because I'm a non-materialistic girl
I choose him because he means more than everything
Not in weight, not in size, not in height, not in time
He is a colossus that captivates me, towering his little self-worth
Would you choose him over your fear?
I asked myself if I would choose him over any fear
I would not, because
I did not choose to swallow my own ocean I was drowning in
I could not reach to grab his hand, he never told me to swim
He is afraid of the waters
While I'm not afraid of him
I will love him over his every demeanor
