Flirtatious first kiss,

Like a shot of whiskey.

Warmed me up, 

Knocked me down.

It's true, I became intoxicated with you,

My own little concoction.

 

Sweet and sour succulence,

Liquor never killed me quicker.

Passion penetrated my every thought.

 

Addiction set in,

Eventually, euphoria was reached.

Each drink of you fueled the fire in my heart
