You're like soda

Coating my taste buds in your sweetness

Yet burning my throat as you go down

It hurts and sends my stomach into a turmoil

Still I crave you even more when you're gone

Just a drop more would satisfy me

You keep me hooked with your promises of pleasantries

I can't stop myself from taking a sip from your tempting bubbles

But I know you only hurt me

After you're gone I'm left feeling lethargic and lonely

Despite the churning of my insides

I can't just quit you

Your taste has been seared into my memory

The feeling whenever I envelop you drowns out the aftermath

You're like soda

Full of sweetness at first but detrimental to my health
