Almond lingers on my tongue,
still I sip from your sweet lying lips--
addicted to the taste of false freedom.

The Reaper, smiles in your kiss,
witness it in my morals gasping.
But slow death is easy to ignore.

Still I sip--
and in between your come and goes,
wait impatiently to ask for more.

Oops

My bad.Heehee, Thanks LeBroz for the correction. Good thing I didn't work arsenic into the poem, yes? Drat, that play, for always making that the poison that pops into my head. Haha.:D ~D.

Right idea from Tess; nasty little relationship portrayed here, though the poison isn't arsenic, it's cyanide that's got the bitter almond-like taste.

Isn't it arsenic that tastes of almonds? Bitter little poem. I like the way it hints and yet reveals.
