Superfluous- Silliness To Satisfy

Yes, I am SO superfluous
Filled with lots of gooey gooness
Yummy words that drip so sweet
A hug and kiss for all I greet

It just may seem… over the top
My kind of sweetness just won’t stop
The sugar coated words I say
Will surely brighten night or day

So, please don’t think me insincere
Believe my every word you “hear”
I will not “say” what I don’t feel
These honey drops are, oh, so real

Kisses coupled with “I love You”
Come straight from my heart, ever true
Superfluous sure can be fine
If blessed to be a friend of mine
