   Infinitely beautiful girl You are infinitely beautiful. Over the years you have become more beautiful in my eyes. I fall in love more and more with your mind and soul. Being in your heart is like living in a royal palace where we are king and queen, love in me is immeasurably gigantic, huge amount. Sweeter and sexier than you can not be anything, in one word, dessert, delicacy. No model is more beautiful than you, in any time, even the Goddess and beautiful aliens are unable to surpass you in beauty. You are brilliantly beautiful and perfect, as well as outside and inside it is the apogee of the highest degree of beauty. This is the highest point of erotic aesthetics, infinitely beautiful. With you I am on a higher, divine dimension of love, bliss and happiness, this is just an indescribable feeling of higher and mega powerful ecstasy and orgasm at the same time to my admiration there is no limit. Your sweet voice and eyes, as if from love, hypnotize me with their beauty and subordinate themselves to their will. The mouth opens and the gift of speech from your beauty is lost, my sexual organ is maximally, extremely excited at the sight of you, you are inconceivably beautiful. I wish to become an eternal, inexhaustible source of love, care and tenderness. My love for you is eternal and infinite like the universe itself. Your appearance excites and falls in love before losing consciousness, excitement is more powerful than nowhere, You are a dream of all my eternity, I feel for you an insatiable passion and eternal thirst for aggressive insatiable eternal sex only with you.
