Besos – Red Flag Up

*Audio by: Synava Ehm

To the ones with soft lips

To the ones with kind hearts

And even kinder eyes

To the ones who are educated, talented,

And the ones who know how to place firm grips on my tits, ass, and thighs.

To the ones who are discreet

To the ones who are magnetic,

Irresistible.

I appreciate you…

To the ones who can make a woman smile,

Even when they’re not around.

To the ones who keep it classy,

And the ones who got style

To the handsome, the fine,

The super fine,

That take-you-from-yo-man fine;

That kind.

To the ones whose bodies seem to give the fingertips purpose;

I appreciate you…

To the ones who know how to fix things,

Instead of leaving destruction and havoc wherever they’ve been.

To the ones who are humble

To the ones who are confident,

Not the ones who are cocky,

And to the ones who know the difference between the two.

I appreciate you…

To the ones who are attentive

And the ones who are reliable

To the problem solvers

And the ones who are considerate,

Without ulterior motives.

I appreciate you…

To the ones who have perspective

And have the ability to open up, their minds, not just their pants

To the ones who offer real insight

Not just because they like to hear themselves talk

To the ones who can exchange knowledge

Instead of pretending they know it all

I appreciate you…

To the ones who have a romantic side

Folded into the pages of their book

To the ones who are not intimidated;

And the ones who don’t need you to raise or upgrade them, at all.

To the ones who can match intensity,

Instead of draining others endlessly.

I appreciate you…

To the ones who smile those smiles,

That smile

Ooh…

I appreciate you…

To the ones who have acquired their own shit,

Without having to consume or cheat anyone else.

To the ones who can hold a conversation,

On any given occasion;

To the ones who put it down in the bedroom,

And the ones who make shit happen. Errday. For real;

Instead of being on that “fake it till you make it” tip, forever…no deal

I appreciate you…

It is men like you that make the dating game memorable,

Bearable,

And fun.

You’re the real MVPs.

When other women say there are no good men out there

It is men like you I’m referring to when I tell them, “I know a few.”

And when they ask me who,

I describe each and every one of you.

I sooo appreciate you…

To the ones who,

When they come to mind,

Make a woman say,

Mmm..

mmm

As she thinks of the lyrics to that song “Wishing”…

Wishing…

Instead of making a woman ask herself, “What the hell was I thinking?!”

To the ones whose voices,

With its accent or its tone,

Tend to linger and send chills,

When remembered or on the phone.

To the ones whose mamas raised them right,

Instead of raising them to just think they’re right.

The ones who don’t have to hide behind a façade,

And don’t have to fake or manipulate to get what they want.

To the real, Real Ones;

We love you just the way you are.

To the ones who don’t hoard the freaky pics;

Cuz they know they’ll get more.

To the ones the bums aspire to be like;

The originals.

I appreciate you…

I am thankful to know you

Or have known you,

In any capacity.

Whether we were friends,

Lovers,

Casual acquaintances,

Or souls passing by.

For it is men like you who remind me that all is not lost;

I simply need to choose more wisely.

I appreciate you…

Stay awesome.

I know it can be hard out there for you too but,

Never let that change you.

The ones for whom these things hold true

Will automatically spot that which is you.

If you have to try to convince yourself that such is true,

Then you probably have some work to do.

Chances are

You’re faking the funk but,

Somebody will settle for you.

(Hell, we all know how I once settled)

So to all the amazing,

sexy,

smart,

fun,

funny,

kind and,

genuine men out there

Who serve as reminders that for every low-life bum I’ve come across,

There have been at least 3 or more who could knock them out of the park.

You deserve to be acknowledged.

Every Day,

All the time.

OH! I so appreciate you.

Besos
