Analysis of Chosen To Want
Feelings are flawed
I once chose not to feel
I once gave up within
A life I had yet
I once cried so hard
I threw up my tears
But I learned once more
That all feelings
The ace in my lungs
The pain in my heart
I chose to leave
Still, we did not part
I feel the pain
Within the bruised parts
Of my body
That I've chosen
