the honeysuckle hits my tongue
and for a second i'm in paradise
a sweet yet so short euphoria i felt
in the moment as the warmth engulfed me
kissing my skin so softly
like the feeling of butterflies fluttering near my face
and suddenly it all slips away from my grasp
and i'm back in my garden
overflowed with weeds and vines
before i pick another delicate flower from its gone
to feel paradise yet again
