Just between you and me, life is
An acquired taste

I have not had the stomach for it on many
Occasions, but occasionally I get a taste
That makes me forget the bitterness that has
Touched my tongue and soured my experience
My experiences have been of things that conjure up
Veins of lava, contorting my core

Just between you and me, life is
An acquired taste

I struggle to swallow, but do because I must
And I bite my tongue and focus on a point of interest
That holds my interest long enough
Until the discomfort passes
Each passing day, makes taking life
A little easier, with sweet hearts, settle mine

Just between you and me, life is
An acquired taste

I touch it with my finger and touch my finger
With my tongue, and my mouth becomes wet
This life of mine, so dry, so bitter, so sour
You offer me a cup, held with loving hands
I trust my server, I take a sip, I kiss his hand
The drink is warm, and warms me
My Love, warms me, flavors my lips with
The hunger for this taste for life

Very nice!

Very nice!!!agreed.
Loved it.
