Beauty in a Name
Your name
Sweet, like a drop of summertime Kool-Aid running down my throat
Sweet, like pink cotton candy and sounding just as soft
(Talisa)
Your name.
Escaping my mouth hardly easy
My tongue rises 3 times before I can let it go
Just to hold it there longer
Beauty in a name.
And
Beauty is her name.
Eyes meet paper
And six letters
Pause breath,
Six letters
Race heartbeat,
Six letters
Tense the deepest insides,
But (her) smile,
Humbles
Sight.
