Analysis of Taste of you

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



A taste of you upon my lips after we kiss
I wipe away with hands boney and used
The taste is turned into a memory I miss
I call it back to me when I feel confused
Sometimes I eat familiar strawberries
Often seeing them where you worked
Maybe I'll pray again for a life hack twist
So I can try again to taste the kiss you left
