Mar 2015
deep pink creature of sense, tingling
craterous chasms vibrant in themselves
keep them cool, soft heat may be applied
mistaken for volcanoes rupturing
birthed yummy, tasteful goodness
what happens when you give fire away
your candy shop mouth breathed fire
I only knew of the sweet it contained
new sides of you surfaced every day
make me play hide and seek with your smile
but we never played in the dark,
where it's easy to see
finding it, only to receive a burnt tongue
filled mouth of forest fire
flame throwing lips, teeth of everlasting coal
my tongue caught fire, burned away taste
now I speak, to burn holes in your chest
words that warrant ice packs when thrown your way
don't get to close to this burnt tongue
for it lost it's beauty,
when it became a volcano of rupturing words
