Second Choice Girl

I’m what you would call one of those second choice girls
Not leftovers or sloppy seconds
Not ordered much at all
One of those girls that simply can’t be considered the “safe option”
An acquired taste
One of those girls always a handful of votes away from being the item of the day
One of those girls that is always listed but not pictured in a way that anyone can see how much she has to offer
The aroma she gives off consists of thoughts and ideas cooked within her mind and served with a side of sass
The recipe, a family secret
Not many dare to taste her flavors
She’s one of those girls that’s always been on the menu but not often chosen because all that she contains is just a bit too expensive for anyone to afford
She feels as though no one wants her
In reality?
Everyone is simply too scared to ask for the check

Some woman are too tempting and too beautiful. Many kind of beauty. Some women are a miracle. Too dangerous to attempt and make you fear she may reject you. I enjoyed the poem. Made me think tonight. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.
