Bitter Rum
2025-02-10
I want to be captivated by you.
But in fear, I run to small hiding places,
free from the cold and despair.
I cannot bear the thought of losing you
as we lay side by side, my world
is a microcosm, with you sealed inside.
What is it about you that makes me whimper,
makes me gasp?
You are my curiosity, come lightly,
a bitter rum-filled flask.
