Sugar Lady Poem by Roman Nikolaev

“I need some sugar, ” she told me not understanding that sugar needs her
Those tiny particles of white pleasure lay on her tongue partially melting in the saliva
One would envy when I watched her swallow what was left
“Sugar is life, ” she said, oh my sugar lady

“You”, I told her with a little romance, “you are much sweeter than I deserve”
Her smile shows her not yet perfectly carious teeth
My sugar lady, she fell on me as ambrosia in the Judgment Day,
Walking through the clouds of the spring mood

May thy horizons juxtapose mine!
The sweet regret of those who have not met you is sunnier day by day
Your hands, my sugar lady, may adorn my burning cheeks
By touching them and going into ecstasies
