Already Chosen

I don’t need to be chased through fire at all,
I know my worth when I reach, when I fall.
Not louder words meant to impress,
Just the way your body answers yes.

When love I give meets you skin to skin,
There’s no question if I still get in.
You feel me there when the lights go low,
In every quiet place we both know.

I’m not asking for more than I bring,
Just mirrored hunger, a natural thing.
Not grand displays or diamond rings,
Just the pull that real closeness brings.

My hand is here, open and true,
My heart steady in choosing you.
Meet me halfway, you already know..
I don’t ask to be chosen.

I am.
