You had me eating
from the palm of your hand.
Your confectionary affections
were artificially-flavored.
Your lips spoke candy-coated lies
and chocolate-covered deceit.
You melted in my mouth;
the aftertaste was bitter.
The sweet nothings you whispered
were just empty nothings.
You’re a cavity;
you rot my teeth.
So take your sugary ruse
and infect someone else.
