a craving

the way your name tastes

rolling off my tongue

succulent slowness of caramel

drips from my lips

in sweet reverence

whispered sugar

I am breathless with craving-

hunger-spun syllables

dissolve like honey in flame

let it melt into the hollow of my throat

like a secret i dare not swallow
