Con-fec-tion-er


I want to roll the words from your mouth, around mine

A candy drop 

To smooth my tongue over

Feel every swirl and indentation

Liquid caramel, so sweet 

Unwrap each syllable with my lips 

Swallow every vowel

Savor the consonants that linger

A delicacy to hear, to taste, to feel

Honey and vanilla kisses

Speak to me, please
