I should be the one thanking you...The last stanza squeezed my heart and gave me chills. It felt like the narrator was saying: I confess I have lived.

Ugh, I'm so disgusted with love, but this was beautiful! "I will always choose to love you." This sentence has been said at some of the most beautiful times in my life. Like the birth of my son!

I really felt this line. Any love is risk. You name that.

And choose it anyway.
