don’t choose me

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
