a woman's body

A woman's body is a fairytale
an eternal sunshine, a day without rain
is like touching cotton with your fingertips
like smelling the ocean: smooth, crispy and sweet

a woman's body is a wonderland
you'd do almost anything just to make her laugh
like christmas bells ringing
like a bee's wing swinging
like fire flames flicking
lighting up the sky

a woman's body is a sacred space
endless curves moving with a gentle grace
like mountains, like breasts
like rivers, like hair
an imagination to fill books and men

a woman's body keeps the holy grail
grandmother, a mother, a daughter, a child
relentless like snow, like an avalanche
streatching and bringin miracles to life

whenever she walks, eyes are all on her
losing your attention when her perfume knocks
lightly on your door
playing hide and seek with your thoughts
nonchalantly but knowing exactly what she's done

a woman's body is a wonderland
you'd do almost anything just to make her laugh
like christmas bells ringing
like a bee's wing swinging
like fire flames flicking
lighting up the sky
