For J.

Can I choose for you?
Take your hand
make you move
draw arrows in the sand

Today there was hope
in your eyes
listening as I painted the picture
wanting what I want for you

Safe and sound
A story to say
A person to love
A joy to express
A beauty to represent

Can I choose for you?
say yes or no
to him or her
move fast or slow

See you like I see you
You'd choose this not that
running with the map
to dreams unlocked
