Sweet

So intensely full of flavour and smooth to the touch
My palate seems to be dancing with each burst
Different dreams weave in my mouth
Delighting my tastebuds and adding no doubts
Caressing my tongue and cascading down my oesophagus
This human delight turns me restless and addicted
The sweet flow of flavour tantalises and teases
Making me aware of each taste as it eases
Tossing and turning inside my mouth 
Ravaged by my teeth so daring and dear
My fingers reach swiflty for the next taste adventure
I panic to find an empty packet instead
I rush to the store to load up on some more
Breathing with relief only after restocking I leave the door
