There is a love for you

that goes deep.

Deep into childhood

A secret to keep.

As long as I could

remember I’ve loved

You more and more.

Your pale white skin

Sometimes clothed

in a heavy frost.

At times you are lost

Without your frosting

Exposing your sauce.

Strawberry filling

So sweet a feeling!

Oozing out when

you’re warm.

Making me want

to leave you unharmed.

I remember Fridays

Standing in line

Waiting to have you

In school on time.

To feel the blue pack

In my hands

After I’ve traveled

Across the lands

Eighty-cents

My pockets intense

You fall from the top.

Safe and warm

Into my mouth

Where you belong.
