I Am Not Staring

No darling, I am not staring at her curvy hips Trust me, I am not looking at her luscious lips No, I am not beckoned by her big brown breasts Neither am I lusting for her perfect long legs Her sleeveless, bare-back blouse is nothing Just like her six foot frame that’s fit for modeling I didn’t even notice the short skirt she is wearing Not even her cleavage, shiny bracelet or earring Who cares if she has spotless, silky-smooth skin Or that she has a pointed, picture-perfect chin Baby you better believe me because it is true You thought I was staring but I was thinking of you
