If you were beautiful
I would gush your name
lapping
The taste of it on my tongue
Sweet and salty
As it is now
I cannot lay next to you
without waves of desire
impaling
sighing as deep as I am shallow
If you were beautiful
I would parade you
Bathe my face in your reflection
Feed you morsels
Of foie gras and sushi
As it is now
I indulge you in hidden rooms
lie to friends and family
hide you away like a sin
Or a drug habit
If you were beautiful
But you are not.
