The Taste of Your Name
January 24, 2011
Your name
So sweet on my lips it used to be
Like warm, melted honey
Dripping off
The corners of my mouth
Your name
Sent shivers up my spine
Such a natural high
I got from saying
Your wonderful name
But now
The taste of your name
Lingers on my tongue
Like sour milk
Warm and chunky
A most unpleasant taste
Your name
Makes my stomach turn
The very sound
Of your repulsive voice
Makes my head pound with
Regret
I scream your name
It always tastes the same
I wish I could get this taste
Out of my mouth
Almost as much as I wish
I could get you
Out of my head
