decadent

What’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten?

If you asked me the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted, I would say your mouth. The softness of your lips, the slip of your tongue teasing past my teeth – nothing else is as decadent or as sweet.

Not summer strawberries, warm from the sun,
or dark melted chocolate.

You taste like warmth.
Like something distinctly mine.

And I swallow that sweetness …

Greedy and aching

As if I had been starving for it.
