Beautiful To Me

Her eyes are so electric
Her smile so soft, gentle, kind
Her body is so perfectly constructed
How is it she cannot see?
My eyes cannot stray
She pulls me in
Like a force inexplicable
Yet she denies it all
Does her reflection betray?
I get tempted and teased
Wanting to run my fingers
Along her beautiful frame
Stopped only by insecurities
What stops me? What stops her?
Does she stand before the mirror?
Does she see her flaws on instant?
Does she realize that it is these
And her abundance of perfections
That makes me want to come close?
What pulls her away?
What entraps her?
What stops her?
What stops me?
Does her reflection betray?
How is it she cannot see?
She’s beautiful to me
