I am delighted to find
Exactly where my lips
Tasted salty
And you were sweet
To me
Where we laughed
As the sea whipped our hair
And these many months
Have not changed your kindness
Or how much I care

I am thrilled to discover
We are co-creators
Of our fate
On my tongue
The taste of your skin
Is exactly
As I recall
Dark fruit and roots
Chocolate goodness
Not bitter at all

Not bitter at all
