Sweet Venom

Overview

Sweet Venom by Romy Walter

Her hair’s like raspberries, like a sweet & sour raspberry jam that was crushed
just as easily as my heart was when I first heard her voice. Just as easily as a
house spider by a book.

Her eyes like blueberries, like a calming breeze that will bite you with a hit of
sour if you stare too long.

Her lips, like honey, make me constantly fight between wanting to hear her
talk and kiss them until she bites back.

Her body, like a statue from old Greece, one that I can only imagine looks so
deadly only covered by golden orb silk.

From head to toe, I’m intoxicated. It’s too soon to tell her, I realize. Though
that won’t stop me from thinking about it.

Maybe eventually I’ll tell her, I’ll let it slip and show her that I don’t carry the
same bite she does.
