How important is it to wear your wealth?

When you call me baby,
I kinda get excited….
For some reason
I don’t understand why….
Maybe it’s comin from you…
Cos you make me feel safe…
You set me on fire…
When you call me baby…

You sound like yourself
When you can call me that…
You didn’t have to act sexy
You didn’t have to act extra deep…
Being a man you are
Got me here
Got me driftin away with you…

Your voice soothe my insides
With bunch of butterflies
It’s a kind gift
It’s a warm gesture…
I love the way you call me baby…
On text messages and on an audio

I guess it makes me feel good
The luckiest lady in the world…
I don’t wanna sound like an ego…
Nor bossy…

I honestly like when somebody I got
A major crush on calls me baby
Or beautiful
Or sweetie…

It’s just some of things that are
A big turn on to me…
I’m one of those women who loves to
Be call that…
I thought it’s a compliment…
I also love being called a baby girl…

When you call me baby,
I sigh, sometimes blush
I love the way you call me baby….
It does make me feel at home….🫶🏾💙 ©️Kai C. 4-28-23

We keep running to the oppressor to complain about oppression, but the oppressor don't aid the oppressed.
