Cascading sweetness engulfs taste buds
underneath an overwhelming sensation.
Cloying syrup-like substances are a dominating
experience, much like your sugar-coated voice as
you weave gilded lies into my ears.
Feigned affection is just one of your numerous vices,
Elated bliss is your masquerade, a sanctuary for your false pretenses,
You whisper words that could be found in sentimental love letters, inducing saccharine smiles.

It doesn't suck! lol! It just feels genuine and ... hmm sort of a point in time kind of thing. I can see someone thinking this as they walk away bitterly keeping their anger inside... Although the fluidity etc. of "worked on planned out" poetry is great... it is the stream of conscious type I like best. It is far more raw!

Sweet and sticky!
I enjoyed this! Although...I prefer pure cane sugar of course!
Best wishes in the contest and always!
Thanks for playing along!
