devour
i devoured a fruit of your name
and to me seemed nothing like you
sweet and deep juices
running down my flesh
and you were deep in me, yes
but not so sweet
i devoured a fruit of your name
but unlike you
it bore no mark of shame
i saw your face as
your arms came under my legs
but i never saw your eyes
i devoured a fruit of your name
and of your soft destructive lies
and to me seemed nothing like you
sweet and deep juices
running down my flesh
and you were deep in me, yes
but not so sweet
i devoured a fruit of your name
but unlike you
it bore no mark of shame
i saw your face as
your arms came under my legs
but i never saw your eyes
i devoured a fruit of your name
and of your soft destructive lies
