Milk and Candy

I invited him in

with the lure of a bedtime snack

milk and candy

he had a sweet tooth

I kissed him

he had a wide mouth

I thought I knew his name

I couldn't decide if it really mattered

his name

he had a whimsical nature

he jumped on the bed

maybe he was stoned

I am sure I was stoned

What was his name

I always say it doesn't matter

you know

who they are

but he seemed to spark me

oddly

he tasted of sugar nonsense

so sweet it didn't matter

I placed a candy necklace

around his wrist and looped it twice

I told him he was pretty

it meant almost nothing to me

he meant almost nothing to me

he was my bedtime snack

milk and candy

I was right

his name didn't matter
