"My Ginger Snap"

Tell me why I go back for more

The addiction is more then I can stand

I am obsessed with my fiery red head

Highly addictive to all my senses

She makes my love for her fulfilling

The nutmeg to my biscuit

Igniting the flames within me

I am consumed with her buttery complexion

Losing self-control over myself

She makes my desire for her more tempting

Her flavor always melts in my mouth

In my impatience of my longing

The urge takes over me

I reach to grab her greedily

Fierce eyes gazing back at me with contempt

Twice baked anger proving to be crispy

Making me a peppery nut

Enslaved to her highly addictive nature

I ignore the caution alerted to my mind

Instinctively following my heart

For the love I carry for my sweet molasses

Reaching in closer to inhale her robust aroma

I take one quick aggressive bite

Overwhelmed with the smoothness of her form

Slowly enjoying the texture of her essence

Her sugary sweetness all I’ll ever desire

I close my eyes to my surroundings

Completely engrossed and self-absorbed

She snaps back with her intense heat

Burning me for my languorous will power

Disgusted with my sloth

Lamenting my own deplorable behavior

I hang my head in defeat

A moment later an epiphany in my eye

I look up with a gleam

Realizing there will never be a grievous heartbreak

For there is nothing inartificial about my Ginger

She knows my love runs deep

My addiction to her deeper

Cravings never subsiding everlasting

For what goes better with sugar?

Then spice…
