words like candy are criss-crossing my tongue
with sweetness and eye-watering strength,
making me want to scream and hit the note.

I don't know what this over-powering feeling wants from me,
expects from me,
or anything else except to give in,
and succumb to what I'm avoiding is true...
but you see,
avoiding is a key word because it means,
I'm afraid,
of not getting anything in return.
