enchanted

I ain't afraid to tell the world,

That you make me,

What I hate most.

 

That the jellybean drops,

Slippin' from your lips,

Spread like,

 

Dollops -

Sweet butter,

On toast.

 

Can't hide my sticky fingers -

Drippin' your,

Candy residue.

 

Though, I plan to make,

The best of it,

Before the moon is new.

 

My sternest strategies,

'neath the night's eyes,

Light my ***** little schemin',

 

My plot to watch,

Your every step,

Before the moment,

That I steal you.

 

--

 

I've been eatin' jellies,

Since I was little -

Today, I've tasted so many,

 

But, the ones that slip,

(And, sometimes, skip)

From that head,  

 

Drive my thoughts,

Out, much,

Too selfishly.
