Exotic

Is it the way your skin glows so iridescent?

A reflection of East African sunsets

Is it your luminous locs levitating like a gazelle mid-stride across an open plain?

Maybe it’s the curve of your smile sitting as high as bedouin sand dunes

Your hips spin in infinity pools

They soak in the halo of your eyes

“You are so beautiful…”

I know darling

I have my grandmother's legs on me

extended clips

They can’t help but take sips

Full lips in eclipse

We’re the women of your dreams

It must run in the genes

I’d rather drown a man than let him take my goddess energy

Beauty is more than your outer appearance. So many rely on looks and disregard what’s within. I know we’re imperfect but why do we turn to looks, status, wealth to determine worth? What’s your heart like? Does your character match your words?
