I chose you

Loice Adoyo 2004 (Nairobi)



I chose you
I chose you,
For you make me feel alive,
You make me wanna dive,
In the oceans of your love,
For you I wanna survive,
With you I wanna thrive.

I chose you,
To watch games and football,
To travel Kenya to a waterfall,
For you are my miracle,
For you old memories i will uninstall,
My mind and body shall answer your call.

I chose you,
To share my joy and fears,
To always wipe my tears,
For I will give you listening ears,
For I want to spend with you many years,
You alone I will show off to my peers.

I chose you,
To open a new file,
To travel and see River Nile,
To always watch you smile,
To walk with you down the aisle,
And give you a child named Kyle.

Lots of Love.
