Sweet One
O’ Sweet One
My decadent trepidation
What a sweet confection you are!
For the lip
Or the tip of the tongue
Mouth watering goodness
Fragrant goddess
Just out of reach
On the other side of the candy store glass
Looking across unseen dimensions
Reflecting, connecting, knowing, sensing, caring
Riding the red line of the laser
From core to core
I see your eyes in the teary pool of my lonely heart
Words and actions betray the beauty of your gaze
Deep arching cavalcade of emotions flow
I want to tear down the 4th wall and make love to you
In the way that knights take maidens in the movies
Words and emotions tell an epic tale of storybook longing
Carousel ride turns while loves passion burns
Suddenly..
he mechanical fiberglass unicorn stops undulating
The dime runs out and the ride is over
The childhood play horse chained in front of the discount store
sitting on the bubble gum crusted sidewalk
awaits another expectant rider
