Why Do You Want Me? Poem by O. A. S Elias

Why Do You Want Me?

Rating: 4.3


I am going to ask you a few questions, and from finish to start
I want the answers to come from the bottom of your heart.

Do you want me for my body?
my lips? or my nose?
Do you want me for my legs?
my breast? or my toes?
Do you want me for my arms?
my fingers? or my bum?
Do you want me for my curves?
my belly? or my thumb?

Tell me why you want me,
And I will let you know,
If you are still my love,
Or if i have to let you go.

What is the right answer, and what's special about your thumb? :)
