She carries herself with confidence but won't make it a sin
If you got to know me you'd like my Spotify playlists
Retro is my style, the culture of your era is one I can't resist

If you got to know me I'd be more than a number
You'd be able to spot me easily among these some odd hundred others
My skill and wit would stand out in your eyes
For it is only then that you'd realize

If you got to know me you'd be impressed
That my uniqueness shines both in time of peace and distress
If you got to know me you'd know me for what I do best
Standing out among the crowd, among the rest

Beautiful.
Today people only care to know themselves.
Then others won't let you know them.
Women are most attractive to me when they are self sufficient and confident. Not that they have to be but it says a lot about them. Just the willingness to achieve is inspiring.

What I like about you most of all here, is a modest pride in uniqueness. That's something I often have in myself, but I think the modesty in truth(at least in my end), is a passive egotistical desire in its own right sometimes. Then again, I'm often far harder on myself than I need be.

Funny how you can talk about your self and it makes me talk about me. It's one of the few times I do; because I spend so much listening, that I rarely ever speak myself.

Thanks for sharing. :)

I like this even better now.

"She carries herself with confidence but won/'/t make it a sin"

That trait I would love to see go around the world!
Be beautiful, be smart and proud. But leave the trashy behavior alone at home.
