Your Sexiest Self

Your Sexiest Self

 

Let us break it down for a moment

Expanding the synapses that fire in our minds

Just for a moment, let us redefine what is sexy.

 

Sex is how you feel about yourself

Not how someone else defines you.

Truth, the real you is sexy.

 

Morning breath, and morning hair.

Your most PMS, stressed out day; and that moment that you smile.

When the mascara runs down your cheek after your tears of joy.

Those times when you blush because you are feeling shy.

Oh, your laugh.  The laugh that comes from your deepest self.

            Those laughs you can’t control.  When you laugh just because you’re happy.

When you smile for no reason at all.

That other smile, the one when you first see your love.

One more smile:  the seductive one that says

            “I want to make love with you until I pass out.”

 

            Reminder:  your truth is sexy.

 

You keep talking to me; even when my eyes have closed.

Even when we sleep.

You keep talking to me.   

            The way our bodies touch when we sleep.

            The warmth that passes between us.

You keep talking to me.

 

Our songs and dance.  Putting on a show for other people.

Like male peacocks spreading out our fanned tails.

Luring others to our beauty.

 

The sexy lies in you.  At the end of the day.

The moment that you sigh, let your gut sag out, flop down on your bed.

You are so tired that your eyes say.

            “Take off my shoes for me, and just rub my feet.”

But you moan.  You are comfortable.  You start to fall asleep.

At that same moment, your heart flutters, and the butterflies in your stomach break out from their cocoons.

As I lay down beside you. 

You slowly turn your head, and look deeply into my eyes.

You start to smile from your eyes, right before your lips break apart.

            It is in that moment

            that I find your sexiest self.

man....do you know how much that means? i mean to humanity in general. well done. passionate, simple, and heart-to-heart. best love poem i read yet

[Jennifer]

This was absolutely beautiful and passionate. I really enjoyed this. Very well written. Isn't it great that other people can see us through eyes of love and find our sexiest self at the most unlikely time to us anyway.

[Jillian Alexis (has bee..]

i think that this one is amazing...this is what ppl really feel when they are in love..doesnt matter what you look like or what your wearing..the superficial materialistic world is stripped..and your just yourself, and the other person, when they truly love you..believe it to be truly sexy.

[Katie Lynn]
