Food of Love-7/21/09
Unwillingly introduced
A forced excursion of the palate
You won me over
Against expectations
Tender, sweet, and delicate
Sharply tangy
Partially enamored
Halfway uncertain
Memory, sensation, and taste
Tangled up within the
Bitterness
Of love lost
Unrequited and mourned
Your gentle harmony
Of texture and flavor
Now denied for so long
Unattainable reminiscence
Left to lie fallow
On
Someone else's appreciative tongue
Perceptive input is always appreciated
