what was it that drew you to me?
was it on my face? -
the cute smile on my face?
my fresh kissable lips?
the ripples on my cheeks?
the bewitching gap between my teeth?
my long ebony hair?
my raised cheek bones?
my ears?
my nose?
my eyebrows?
what was it?

Was it when you saw me promenading along the shore,
my hands swiveling around my hips?
really, was it my broad hips?
or my long silvery shanks?
my big banks?
narrow waist?
laden breast'?
or was it something more?

what was it?
Was it my charming voice,
Sweeter than cans of honey?
Or was it in how I looked at you
With my alluring sexy eyes?
Was it my softspokenness?

What was it?
What was it that drew you to me?
Was it those long gold earrings¿
Or that sparkling diamond necklace¿
Was it that minidress
That revealed my brown thighs and calf¿
Or the sleeveless crop top
That uncovered my navel and midriff¿
Was it my gentle shoulders?
My nape?
My shin?
Or my brown skin?
What was it?
Tell me, darling,
What was it that drew you to me?
