The words slide through the air
Meant only for me
Truth cloaked in a sexy smile
Witticism drier than the Gobi
—
You tickle my frontal lobe
Rapid-firing my neurons
Your intellect is incitive
Our laughing fits are marathons
—
A comic I’m not, still you laugh at me
Awkwardly, our dance is all feet
You’re chocolate, I’m marshmallow
Together we melt into an amorous treat
—
Nothing gets passed you, especially me
A quip, an eye roll, sarcasm flows
As the last word is usually yours
Regardless, our smiles are appose
