This poem is not really about Candy. It's about temptation. I used the word 'Candy' metaphorically. It's up to the reader to know what this poem is really about.

I went to buy candy this morning
10 am
...

This poem is not about temptation. It's about the state anyone can be in when they're not sober nor completely drunk. In between.

Didn't think you'd be the key
But your smoke sways struggling to purify me
...

Molded into different shapes
Constantly bitten by your bittersweet breath
Intoxicated
...

Under the weather
Down low
Beneath the ground
Water, mud, rain…
...

Colorful dots join me in murky
Oh hello
Sure
I'd love to dance
...

Water drops
Streaming down my cheek
Red lights
They burn and burn
...

Ouch
My bubble screams
Stitched up
Burst by a new pin
...

Cupid's arrow is bent
Somehow the queen of hearts won the bet
Cupid sighs
Like nothing's changed
...

What am I
Beneath the mud
That's beneath the rain
Beneath the water
...

Empty bed
Oh So Empty
My nakedness
Screaming for you
...

You
With your brown eyes
And I,
With my mud
...

Went to the parlor last night
Baby cry
I'm Vincent Van Gogh
Did I get a piercing?
...

Life
Turned me into the reflection that you see
And I,
Can be everything
...

Two or three hours a night
Is all that I can get
So I better lay my head back
'Just sleep tight
...

Note: In this poem, when I used 'Mary Jane' and 'Marijuana' i am talking about a person who leaves a happy effect on me (just the way drugs leave happy effects on us) therefore, instead of using that person's name, i compared them to Marijuana and Mary Jane.

October, the month right after my day
I sit on the porch and wait for the rain
...

Hello Beautiful
I had you in my hand
You were so close
...

Don't blame me
For blame is temptation
Blame me again
And I'll be out there
...

18.

Take me
Take me now
Take me away
Don't you want me to leave?

Candy

This poem is not really about Candy. It's about temptation. I used the word 'Candy' metaphorically. It's up to the reader to know what this poem is really about.

I went to buy candy this morning
10 am
Fucked me up on the inside
Burned my throat
Was it really candy that I bought?

Next thing I know
Time is my friend
Or is it just pretend?
I wonder how many of my scars
Candy would be able to mend

Aisle three
Get more of that candy
The light is dim here
But it's all clear
The candy I want to get
Makes me easily forget

So I buy candy
More and more candy

Strawberry
Blueberry
And lots of other flavors too
Whatever it takes
To get me out of this blues

My shadow looks at me with discontent
Shakes its head,
Points its finger back at me
Like I should be feeling guilty
But I couldn't care less
Candy fills my emptiness
Like a baby, I'll even stain my dress

I buy candy
More and more candy

Now I'm in my own illusion
The effect scurries fast
But I like it, like the confusion
So bad, I want it to last

Don't judge me this way
I'll give you some candy
Just chill, relax and lay
Tomorrow's a new box of candy
A new day…

I reach for my imaginary doorknob
Flip it open
No candy there
So I weep and sob

Without my sweetener
The tea isn't tea
The coffee isn't coffee
Again you've taken away
The only thing that's left for me
Give me back my candy

Far away I'm sailing
Into a dream, where you're always failing
It could just be me
No it's not
It's what I see
When candy is inside my blood
Smiles fill my face like a flood

It burns; it's one of candy's flaws
But to feel that flame
I'd beg and crawl
You've taken the pleasure away
Left the candy wrapper for display


Give me back my candy
More and more Candy.
