May we ask how old you are?
Guess
22?
Silly little girls
Drunk on wine
I could kiss you!
I see you work out a lot
And wondered why
Are you a photo model?
No, my dear old woman
Just vain and insecure
Like everyone else
You look great today
But it doesn't matter what you wear
You always look beautiful
When you're naked
Sweet words from a generous lover
Thank you
Such a lovely boost
These naked compliments
And I wonder how you see yourself
Do you know what you are?
Shall I tell you how
I see you?
To me, you always look
Like you did on your most
Perfect day
I don't see pounds
or wrinkles, or loss of hair
I only see the bright spark in your eyes
That's all I've ever really seen
The beauty within
And now I stand before you
Heart stripped bare naked
And ask what do you see
When you look at me?
