a yearning for a lover who spits you out like a seed.

Forever suspended while you dance on my lips.

Opening our mouths

Removing the stem.

Begging to be consumed, crafted into a knot.

Infinitely spit out like a trick

Desire fades

Deception seeps in.

Enviable of their distance

Naïve to unspoken intentions.

muddled, we search for our cherry in a sea of Fantasy

we carry on in a ____________________Trance

Acrostic

About the Creator
