Just by Tasting You by Chantell P.
I want to leave the house to become like you,
strawberry at dawn, and be tested by thirsty lips.
Strawberry of a thousand freckles you have,
I want to eat you at noon,
I wish those days of silence to take advantage of having you in my hands.
I want to drink you in fresh water, lick you on ice cream and popsicles.
You are a beauty highlighting that crimson red,
which tempts anyone to go after you.
If I leave home I will go after you, you are one of my wonders and
I will not let you go, although I try you every day,
I will never get bored of you ...
