y's taste like rain

his name

tastes like cedar

or how cedar might taste

if you ever tasted it.

yours is more like air

flavored water

nothing with a little

something 

vague and soft

in the background.

nouns are rich

verbs spice

to adjective's sweet

conjunctions taste like

sips of juice

between breaths

but there are some words

that explode

pouring

from your lips

like music

made into letters.

i love you.
