A taste
In a book,
In your eyes,
In a starry sky
It's all the same.
A bittersweet taste
Left my palate bare
A plate or a glass please
Something earthy
To take this flavor away
I missed my mark
And tasted nectar
It didn't **** me
At least not right away
It let me taste eternity
Now everything is paste
My tongue doesn't know
But my soul knows where its at
A temporary place
Memory accruing
To be taken home someday
Eternity is a bittersweet aftertaste.
