desserts

it's an urge
that suddenly comes over
me,
a desire
that needs
to be quenched,
an appetite for something
sweet.
something sugary.
perhaps
cold and soft,
flaky to the touch
and layered, but
something
that will melt in my mouth
once bitten
or licked.
it could
be chocolate or vanilla,
the pinkest of strawberry,
even praline,
it could be you
coming across the room
covered
in whipped cream.
