She Eats Boys for Breakfast iv



She eats boys for breakfast but she doesn't discriminate and sometimes she eats girls too
She sucks them up and savors every last drop,
She attends to the meal, nourishing her and feeding her soul and mind in addition to her body

She eats girls for breakfast in heaping warm portions,
She eats girls for brunch the way she eats from her favorite place, in her most comfortable moment, a time that was truly more of a memory.
She remembers these moments, almost glassier than they truly were, a warm memory of a moment that was only cool

She eats girls for breakfast sometimes but the girls never eat her back the way she wants,
Boys devour her, take full swallows, giant gobbling bites,
While girls take teeny nibbles, they get just a taste, just a hint, and then suddenly they're full
The girls she eats for breakfast always surprise her
