Choose me!

I want you to choose me.
 
I want to you to choose me,
 
Not because you think I’m pretty,
 
Not because you love the way I laugh,
 
Not because I am “easy to love”,
 
Not because you don’t want to be alone
 
 
 
I want you to choose me because
 
I am not something,
 
but I am everything,
 
Because the way I laugh is so encapsulating,
 
That you could not let me go,
 
Even if you did.
 
 
 
I want you to choose me because
 
You think I could be your girl.
 
Not just any girl,
 
But your forever girl.
 
 
 
I want you to choose me not because I’m perfect,
 
Not because I’ve been perfect,
 
Not because I’ll ever be perfect,
 
But because you want me.
 
 
 
I guess I should follow my advice
 
I practiced for the presentation,
 
But I overslept my alarm.
 
 
 
I tried to plan everything the way I wanted,
 
But when the day came for God to see those plans,
 
I had left them at home.
 
 
 
Now, I sit here, and I choose you.
 
If it doesn’t matter and I missed the final exam,
 
At least I aced all the midterms.
 
And even if you don’t choose me,
 
I wish you love!

Understanding is everything, isn't it?
