You want to taste, that desperate urge

I let you put me on your tongue

as you trace my surface,

you get the satisfaction of my sweetness

you test its layers:

you break it, twist it, dig deep

your eyes squint, your senses are high

the sourness took you by surprise

but you don't spit it,

you devour it, explore it, adapt it

you have just started getting lost

but the limit comes to an end

your mouth is empty, devoid of my touch

then you understand the true flavor,

the essence of my whole

you want it

you crave for more

the saliva still has ruins of me,

it does nothing but pushes it to extreme,

disappointment leads to addiction,

that's what I do,

but I did warn you.

- she slurs, as into her glassy eyes hecould sense it was a goodbye.
