Witch Hunt

       you followed
        the candy trail
       that led up
        to my door
     you ate the melted kisses
        and begged me
      for some more
    when I refused
       you pouted
   but by then it was too late
       now you tell your guy friends
    you hated what you ate

BUT I SAW YOU 
SMACK YOUR LIPS
LICKED SUGAR OFF
YOUR FINGERTIPS
        
   you empower me
 with your denial
  I turned the honey
     into bile

        And so it goes
         live and learn
          Hate the witch
           You can never
               burn.
