Sweet Nothings

Sweet Nothings.

Kisses are sweet as candy
The feelings last longer too.
Caresses are sweet beyond compare
Especially with you.
Candy full of bubbles, is a hollow empty shell
You in my arms are the sweetest,
That’s what they should sell.

Candy cannot touch the sweetness of your loving kiss
All the chocolate in the world I would rather miss
It is nothing compared to the warmth of your  sweet caress
If you were a bar of chocolate, you would melt and be a mess.

There are sweet nothings that people often spout
When true love is here, we all hear the shout.
Who needs candy or chocolate bars, the taste gone in just a minute.
But it can give us some pleasure 
Especially if you're wrapped in it.
