I Have Decided

I Have Decided
-by MVB

I once thought
To tell you to become a writer
Because I like it a lot
When you lay down words for me sometimes
And I fancy the thought
That you could write beautiful love letters to me
But I can't force you
To do something you might not like.

And then I thought
That you would make a sublime sculptor
To polish my body
With your tools
And to chisel my soul
But sculptors are born
And I cannot force your hands
On my body.

So I have finally decided
To make you a painter.
You have no choice!
And if you don't like it
Then why did you paint me
So beautifully
On your heart?
