When I call you pretty
I don’t mean you have flawless skin
Or a beautiful thin body
With faint white rosy cheeks
I mean to say you're kind and forgiving
When I call you cute
I don't mean you look like a baby
I mean to say you’re sweet with your words
And you’re smile makes me want to lay the world at your feet
It means I love the way you look at me with curiosity
And the way you give people your full attention
As if every word they spoke was of the utmost importance
Makes me want to learn more about you
While I admire how your lips pressed together when you think
And how easily and effortlessly they form words
When I call you beautiful
I don’t mean you’re hair is smooth and silky
Or that your makeup today is flawless
I mean your messy natural bed hair just magnifies
how effortlessly your inner beauty shines through
And that your natural face has this way of saying every word in your heart
And your heart is so beautiful it composes whole symphonies
And when I call you sexy
I don't mean your outfit is provocative
I mean the fierceness in your soul suits you so perfectly
That I forget you are human
I mean there is not enough time in the day
To draw all your beauty
And I am not perfect
So I can not draw perfection
But i can show you a mirror
And show you the closest thing to perfection
