Beggars Can'T Be Choosers

I choose to be loved
Why do I beg for you to love me

I choose to be happy
Why do I beg to be happy with you

I choose to be satisfied
Why do I beg you to satify me

I choose to be independant
Why do I beg to becaome one with you

I choose to be beautiful
Why do I beg for you to see my beauty

I haven chosen to beg
That was my first mistake
I am all the above
And that, no one can take
