I choose to be happy*
those words, now caged in a song,
slip through my lips before their
immortalisation.
They come in a confession of self,
a revelation of me.
I stare up at the listener preparing
to defend myself, and find,
once again,
that no defence is needed.
My heart,
my safety,
my world.
With you alone I am
constantly vulnerable,
yet always
protected.
Thank you.

To my best friend Charlotte, no poem will ever truly live up or express what you are to me but...here's my first attempt. With you I am always safe, with you I am never scared, and to me that is the greatest gift anyone could give. Thank you for seeing the real me. <3
