Let me taste the secrets
Lingering in your mouth.
Open the tomb and roll out
Your tongue like a red carpet.
Let me walk this path with you.
.
I'm eager to taste hellfire.
More eager still to lap up
The unspoken words cloistered
Between your teeth like sugar.
Can't you tell that I'm starving?
.
I'm hungry for your secrets,
Ravenous for the stardust
Coating the red of your lips.
Let me marry the wicked thing
Soaring in the night of your soul.
.
Part your lips for me, won't you?
Let me slip inside your depths.
I'll treat you gently, dove.
If only you open your mouth
And spill those pretty secrets to me.
