My Secret

I tried so many lovers, short and tall and thin.

Some rich, some poor, and others, but I couldn’t win.

All the men in all the world surround me,

all hair and muscles,

all the men around the world astound me -

but I’ll tell you my secret.....

Her skin is softer by far, tender and divine.

I’ll desert any man in the world,

as long as she is mine.

They took me out to movies, tried to get in my pants.

They sent me flowers and chocolates - their idea of romance.

Burly men and puny men can try me,

whatever the size is,

my desires continue to defy me -

and it’s not a secret....

She smells like roses and wine, scented and refined.

I’ll leave any man in the world,

as long as she is mine.

Man lips are rough and hairy, they always need to shave.

And no matter what their age is, they never learn to behave.

Single men and married men adore me,

but it’s not my problem,

I wish men would learn to just abhor me -

‘cause I’ve got a secret...

Her lips are chocolate and peach, I can’t seem to decline.

I’ll forget any man in the world,

as long as she is mine.

Her slender, splendid beauty, warm against my skin

Invites the purest passion rippling within.

Hair and eyes and lips and fingers touch me,

elegant, charming.

Taste her tongue and breathe her breath inside me,

I can’t keep it secret...

Her soft, enchanting embrace, is sweet and so sublime.

Who needs men in the world,

as long as she is mine.
