Tasted

I wonder if you remember the way that you tasted the night I met you

I know that it is easy for me to recall the sugary drop of you into my mouth

And still now when I lick my lips there’s a flash of your sweetness

But it’s only a reflection of how you tasted to me once upon that summer’s night

It has been too long, my lover, since I have tasted deeply enough of you to satisfy me

Your soft and full lips an entire lifetime’s worth of sustenance to the starving
