A Bubblegum Crush

Uh, ahum, mmh, erh, yes
I suppose that
More or less, 
I want, 
(if such is fine with you) 
You, my love, 
To kiss me. 

Hard.

Careful first, 
Slowly, now, 

Reckless later
breathless,
All enveloping
Dizzying, wow
A rush to my heart, 
A crush on my tongue like a ball of bubblegum

What I want, I cannot confess
It feels too good to say, 
All I can manage is
"god, I'm dazed"
And lay gentle hands on you, 
Waive away my doubt
And caress 
More, or less,

All of you,

So - more.

More is what I want,
I want us sore
In the best possible ways.

I've loved you the most
In the fewest days.
