a ditty

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

love poems

    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! ✨
