Sweet Poem


Creamy, soft, sweet.

Moldable but crisp.

Colorful like old fashioned salt water taffy sold by the barrel.

Orderly like candy buttons peeled off paper by the teeth.

That is what I want to be.

A pleasure to the senses.

A treat for the mind.

Everything that you crave.

Just never consume me.

Never leave me hollow.

Drained of all essence like the syrup in those wax candy bottles.

I may be yours, but I am also mine.

Not sold by a price.

Love not sold in bulk.

All I ask is you try to be the same for me.

An exchange of flavor and colors.

Equally exchanged so neither runs dry.

Delighted in a timeless way.

I just want to remain sweet for you.
