I LOVE MYSELF

i do love myself

i like myself
thats an understatement
i love myself
some dont like it
they say its too much
but how can it be too much
if you cant measure it
it is me loving me
you are not in that equation
love your neighbour
as much as you love yourself
what if you hate yourself
guess no love for your neighbour
before you fall in love with me
love yourself first
am not a hunk like brad
not athletic like a spartan
not powerful like obama
not rich like bill gates
but damn i really love myself
thats why its easy for them to love me

You make a good point, you should love yourself! ^_^

[Stan Lee]

Good point! You cant' love your neighbor as yourself if you have no self-love. Having said that, I dont believe we should fall in love so completely that we forget to keep improving. :) Nice poem!

good thought. Develop it. Why should anyone indulge in self love? Lots of open material for you there.

[Antoñyo]

Yes, a huge part of what we send out into the world comes from within...why then store hate or discontentment (even towards yourself) inside?
Good and necessary piece here. Thought-provoking.
Thanks for the share

Words of truth that I write of often. You cannot love someone else, nor can someone love you until you love yourself. Excellent work expressing those ideas. I like how you structured your work. Very nice.
