RO DU JOUR

U fed me with

Ro's spoons of grandeur

U let me taste

just a bit of how

delicious U could be

I was handccuffed

my wrists badly scarred

and circulation somewhat cut off

from the lack of

relationship know how

yet this little morsel

of sweetness

kindly and given without hesitation 2 me

was in actuality the key ingredient

emancipating, healing, shifting

focus from the unknown

this little dabble into

your little dish

was oh so heavenly

and how kind of U 2

give it freely

I've longed 4 someone 2 do just that

I savored the creaminess of your ways

so rich in its thickness

with my eyes shut tight

tears gently squeeze themselves

from the corners of my eyelids

praying

could it be possible

that something so pleasurable

would ever find its way 2

this scorched tongue

housed amidst a throat

so burnt

its refusal 2 swallow caused a nasty unattractive habit

2 constantly SPIT

SPIT and yeah,

just 2 b sure its all out

SPIT one more time

so that bullshit is acknowledged

just not swallowed

with the back of my right hand

in a swift right to left motion

I always brush away any traces of this

from the corners of my lips

and

smirk, acting, pretending

that I enjoyed that crap

yet U

thick with the realness

smooth with your flow

and toothache sweet

I don't even want 2 let U

ooze down my canal

4 fear that when I push back 2 swallow

there may be no more of U

I KNOW U

wouldn't be regurgitated

I KNOW I

could stomach U

DAYUM

I can c how big my belly would grow

but that's just a visual cuz

I'm so scared

2 swallow

2 push U

easily back and down

unless I'm sure

unless U promise

U'll be back 2 feed me

with the silver spoon

that I wasn't born with

that I knew nothing about

until u stood

willingly b 4 me

blind foldin' me, securin' me tight

makin' sure I wouldn't

lash out

and

swing, kick, & thrash wildly about

I parted my lips

with trust

U entered my soul

with love

DELECTABLE

and U KNEW

someone was gettin' smacked

cuz

U

with all that U R

U knew U would

taste soooo much better

than your mom's

bananaless banana puddin'
