Something besides looks

Something besides looks
Irresistible style maybe -
The grace of self-awareness
The frames of eyelashes
Around drowning eyes
The delicate
Fragrance of fluffy hair..
Ambiguity of unspoken words
Brings music
To the quiet of the room
Sends shivers through space
Flashes back
Forgotten memories
Of how it first happened before
And pulls you
Into the spiderweb of affection
To get lost and not care
About ever getting out

I really liked it Ya, even "To get lost in the spiderweb of affection"" is not always the best way

Heavy stuff, but true, especially like the last line

Thank you Salamuna, did not mean it to be too serious, it was more about the mystery of attraction

Thank you southmiami4321! Came up with a better line “The grace of self-awareness”
Instead of “The yoga posture of self-awareness”, seems like it suits the poem better.
