honey

I see her

walking down each hall,

leaving traces

letting breadcrumbs fall,

such an echo

resounding in my bones,

addictive honey

she won't leave me alone,

my eyes follow

mesmerised by her sway,

she turns and smiles

my world softly melts away,

she looks at her watch

then gesticulates to me,

a hello or goodbye

it's never easy to see,

she's like honey

the sweetest I could find,

and my sweet tooth

recognises and opines,

that beauty is there

standing a few feet away,

how long has it been

since I first met your gaze,

shes like honey

the dangerous corporate kind,

way above my pay grade

too beautifully austere to mind,

how much a man yearns

in the quiet of his thoughts,

she's like honey

the kind I wish I'd bought,
