Drinking Away My Desire

Your lips are my destine liqueur
like a shot of berry Chambord;
took a sip, I’m ready for more.
Buzzed in the veins, body on the floor.

You became a plague in my mind,
one too many glasses of wine,
feelings without words, undefined
fervor reacting like alkali.

Do you how do? If you understood that reference, we are definitely soulmates. Anywho, HELLO, my name is Riley and you are twice as likely to see me around because I am an identical twin. I currently attend NAU and am majoring in biology and minoring in psychology. My favorite things include black coffee, cute dogs, and running uphill. Bad puns and sarcasm are in my blood, so you are going to have to bare with me kids.
