Phases of a Honey moon

Poem

Together we watch the full Honey moon

Basking in the yellow glow

A golden kiss

Sugar softens my lips

Syrupy sweet

Hooked on the taste

The taste of New

​

But New fades

Sugar crusts around my lips

Sticks them shut

I can't tell you how bored I am

The bright Honey moon has waned

The pot has run dry

Flies gather around rancid traces

Of once sweet honey

They, like you, seem to be the only ones who enjoy the taste

It's about honey sweet moments with she, but something went wrong and honey moon faded under the clouds. That how I saw this poem. I want to admit a good allegory, how you bond moonlight with love and flies with a bunch of newborn boyfriends. Good job dude!
