Kitchen

I see you in the kitchen

cooking that meal I like

You fry it with uttermost care

It's bittersweet, because I know you

won't let me eat

As you laugh and eat it in front of me

Thanks for reading

Oh, yes, Dow 😒

How torturous it can be to so lavishly relish the deliciously delectable morsels, while, having their glorious tastes and flavors denied; yet, enjoyed by another … it can be enough to drive a starving heart insane.
Love your creative use of metaphor in this double entendre piece … great imagination.

Thank you for sharing your finely honed skills! ⁓ Richard🖌

Very creative. Tempting another with the flavours , but denying them the taste. Bittersweet indeed. Starvation a cruel punishment.

oh, how cruel...how cruel!
It is like dangling love in front of someone but holding back...saying "this is what you could have, but not."
