Burning Whiskey

You smell of nighttime and taste of whiskey

Desire written in your eyes and need dripping from your voice like honey

You tell me I remind you of a forest fire

Wild

Untameable

Beautiful

Yet, your hands so eagerly reach for me

So willing you are to thrust them into the flames

Willing to lose yourself in this wild dance of flame and torment

Ready to just walk straight into the forest though smoke engulfs you

Smoke wrapping around your throat leaving you gasping for air

Oh sweetheart

Didn't anyone ever teach you?

Good little boys like you who play with fire

Will always get your finger burned
