bittersweet (revised)
Entrenched desire breaks a sweat
Heated by poisoned ego Gifted by the Gods to please Burdened by loves’ demanding hold Take the flower in practiced hands Lap up the petals with buds of taste Fertile soil beneath such charm Inexperienced blossom grown from seed Hunger bleeds from this open rose Desire the sun which feeds Spread open these red lips of aroma Inhaling the depths of your fragrance Salty, lush bitterness
