don’t choose me because i make your heart race
or your mind light up
when i talk with grace
.
don’t choose me because your skin feels alive
as mine touches yours
and raises your vibe
.
don’t choose me for my appearance nor for my dress
don’t choose me because you think i’m the best
.
choose me knowing there are many better than me
stronger, cleverer, more beautiful to see,
.
better dancers and singers and better lovers too,
millions are better at all I can do,
.
choose me because of how your soul connects
choose me because it won’t let you forget
.
choose me because i’m the one you love truly
choose me so that we can finally live fully

This is so beautiful. Love the message
This is so beautiful. Wonderfully done.
Well-wrought! Not everyone will get chosen, however, and no one should take that as a sign of a defective heart. It seems to me, historically speaking, that many of the noblest and most loving souls stood out and alone for all.
We all deserve someone who chooses us this way. Beautiful poem!
It speaks to the deeper connection that goes beyond surface-level attraction. This one's got all the feels, but in a chill way! It’s like saying, "Pick me for the real deal, not the shiny stuff." Love the vibe! ✨
