Sweet

(like honey)

the honey

dripping from your lips

has never tasted so sweet.

it fills my belly with warmth

and turns my heart mellow

your touch is quiet

gentle like flower petals

i barely notice it

caressing me

because you do not sting.

i wait for

the tiny prick of pain

so I do not fill my insides

until your warmth does not fit

and the honey from your lips

turns bitter

paralyzes my limbs

and i cannot move

because i am drowning

in pools of your sweetness

that is no longer sweet

feeding on the poison

that is eating my soul.

you are sweet.

(like honey).
