Red Velvet Reverie
layers deep as midnight’s hush
a crimson dream, a lover’s blush
velvet soft beneath the light
wrapped in cream, a sweet delight
cocoa whispers, sugar sighs
rich as love in longing eyes
each bite lingers, melts, remains
a kiss of silk, a sweet refrain
fork in hand, a stolen taste
lips are stained, no crumb to waste
one more slice, just one more bite
a cake of passion, pure and right
would you dare to take it slow?
or surrender to its glow?
red as longing, red as sin
taste it once—be lost within
