Tell me why?

When it comes down to it,

You know you always...

Pick the ripest of the berries.

The biggest scoop of ice cream,

The best of every brand,

The one that looks the greatest,

The things that get you places,

So tell me why you aren’t consistent

Tell me why you can’t pick the best

When it comes to men,

You want the one who’ll break your heart.

You choose the worst, and they live up to their standard.

Why go for the bad boy?

When the good boy is right next to you?

Where he’s been all along.

Yes mam, this is sooo true. Though the truth is we ladies have no idea what we want. We go for the bad boys because they are unpredictable, and we seem to think it will make life better yet in reality it is only more stress. I think I finally have my good boy on lock and I will be keeping him for a long long time :D Great write I love it

There are things that are already in front of our eyes and yet we tend to take them for granted and regret when they aren't there anymore. ^^ Great job.

"Why go for the bad boy?
When the good boy is right next to you?
Where he’s been all along."

this is something that i have been wondering for a very long time.
but if you would like to see my perspective as "the good boy" and how tired we get you may look at my poem "look! look! Gone! Gone!".

but i still agree with the perspective of the following:
"Tell me why you can’t pick the best
When it comes to men,
You want the one who’ll break your heart."

never the less its still a very pressing issue which you have written very well.

Dang this is so true. The best women in the world always fall for the worst guys. It's the same story everywhere
