Wildflower – Beyond Just Breasts
She is beyond just her breasts With a mind and heart of her own, She craves to be heard inside out Forever by a force unknown. She is about her eyes Which speak volumes without having said anything at all, The sparkle in those eyes is inevitable When she watches him watch her fall. She is about her nose Which twitches when she smiles her widest best, That colour of her nose is most red When she contains all her tears in a life’s test. She is about her cheeks Which glow without a blush, It is hardly a matter of seconds before he appears His effect on her seems…
