The doctor said it was a sugar overdose!

The doctor said it was a sugar overdose!

Her perfume coils

around my nostrils

with full lips that murmured

to be kissed

in a voice as dulcet

as honey.

I kissed her;

her lips indescribably sweet.

I just knew then,

on a thought

that occurred to me,

I was going to get diabetes.

The last line is a line my friends love to use around me because I'm a horrible sugar addict. Nice spin on the theme of love as a disease xD fleeting infatuation is just like a sugar overdose especially with the crash that comes right after.
