the friendly drop

the friendly drop

 

 

lovely poison

eyes dilated by her somber bones 

lying in wait for the end

we kiss deep into the shallows

of my submissive heart

 

i am aware of her label

but i drink intensely

consequences never have an expiration date

we return lips to their rightful place

even if no breath emerges between them.
