peach

i want
you
to split me open
like a peach;
force my sweetness
from the pit.

i am
the fruit
and the tree;
savor me
slowly
with eyes and tongue.

i will
keep giving
and giving
until you
(concerned with choking)
ask me
to stop
(so you can breathe)

only
to catch your breath
and reach for me
again...
