if you are captivated by my words
then you will love only my words
if fair face is the attraction
you will no longer be attracted
when smoothness is marred
with lines of life’s journey
if red silk candle reflections
and soft fire of my hair inflames
your desire to lie wrapped in it
while night shadows flee away
will fingers still want to entwine
in strands of dawn's cloudy gray ?
have you seen me, glimpsed my soul?
for it is all I have to offer you
that will not change with time
it is the better part of who I am
all else is superficial, shifting
will knowing my soul be enough?
if fair faces and sensual words
tresses untouched by time’s brush
are true objects of your desire
if I am not enough, my depths
unable to enfold and hold yours
then blessed be your quest for more
it is the core of what we we are that entices, enwraps and holds the attention, love and desire of others to us -- yours is a formidable pull, a magnetic attraction of grace -- use it wisely my dear friend -- peace and love -- Jon Michael
I am sure this touched many of your readers, as it did me...lets hope a partner sees the beauty of your soul as the outer shell softens with age. Beautiful!
Wow, La Belle.
How wonderfully said. Being an older man, I love older women. I love the gray hair and a face and body that show life's years, as do mine.
You certainly hit a familiar cord with me, my lady.

What is inside of the poetess, shines through her lovely verses of truth and pain. Nice way to say, Beauty is only skin deep, it's what is inside that is considered "true Beauty!"
Peace, love, and light,

LaBelle,
Once we see past the outer coverings we are on the path to fulfillment
- your theme is noble and eloquently, maturely expressed, and in the final lines such grace and dignity...and forgiveness.

Excellent writing sweet lady...enjoyed very much...stay safe and well...Hugsss
A beautiful way to say that looks are not as important as the inner beauty we all have and only we can chose to share. I do like the style and flow of this one Belle although there is a hint of sadness their is also the strength of pride and letting go of one who are too shallow to know what they are losing.
