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
