Selfish

Is it selfish of me

to want to feel beautiful? 

Is it selfish of me

to want your attention?

Is it selfish of me

to wish I was the one 

you hold in your arms at night?

Is it selfish of me 

to want to be the last thought

before you go to sleep? 

Is it selfish of me

to want you to love me

just as much as I love 

you?

The response to this piece should be . . .
No it is not selfish of you to want to feel beautiful
Because you are gorgeous inside and out
No it is not selfish of you to want my attention
Because I should only and always focus on you
No it is not selfish for you to want to be in my arms tonight
Because I want to hold you in my arms tonight and every night
No it is not selfish of you to want to be the last thought I have before I drift of to sleep
Because I cannot sleep without thinking of you
No it is not selfish of you to want me to love you as much as you love me
Because you deserve somebody who will indeed love you as much as you love me

Great piece !!!

Maybe.
I mean honestly without more information it does sound like you could be being selfish.

As far as the poem goes it is pretty well done. It's asking the honest questions that people do feel from time to time and opens the door to being able to adequately see what seems to be going on.

nice work

intriguing questions, but time will only tell if the feelings are mutal back.
Like your write.
