Viola Grey - Bitten. For Billy

Sliding across jagged teeth,
you taste of sweet deceit.
My taste for something better
only leaves me parched.
A tender, shallow hunger
nourishes illusions
that should have long been lost
to true love.
But, I cannot refrain
from sinking sanguine teeth
into the sweetness of you.
Each nectar bite satiates
even my tempestuous soul.
