Little Dove

Khalil Goddard

Her naked breasts exposed to public view
Taunt you
You make comparison with your own
Little grown
Foolishly you think size actually ever matters
Confidence shatters
Beauty and sexiness are about the mind
You're blind
You must learn this obvious, important fact
Confidence intact
The beautiful body you have is sensually alight
Sexually bright
You shine to all those who know how to discern
They burn
Love and lust intermingled and tightly entwined
Shining mind
Go to the one you love as both giver and taker
Not faker
Good luck and may your lives be full of genuine love
Little dove.
