Hungry kiss

I’ll not drink
from your cup
of lust
just not that thirsty
or in need of emptiness.

What you offer
is merely a test
don’t want to get hooked
or taste
something come morning
will be bitter
leaving me with questions
of why and what’s next.

Been down that road before
felt used
not to mention emotions
I shared
thinking you might care
as I dissolved
passion.

I’m no longer a fool
need no blind bliss
so don’t tempt me with
a hungry kiss
that would lead to
a night filled with regret.
