Aftertaste

Aftertaste

Chocolate mousse on your breath
When you kiss me
Sends delightful shivers
To my brain
~
I would like to sip
Maple syrup
From your fingers
And share the aftertaste
In another kiss
Just to drive myself
Insane
~
And when you leave
The aftertaste of your coffee
Lingers long after
The door closes
I wait to brush my teeth
To ease the pain
~
The thought of you
Lies in the back
Of my mind
While I'm in class
Like the aftertaste
Of a sweet crisp wine
I smell you
In the rain
