I savored the taste, for as long as it was mine, but I knew, from the first moment I took a bite, it would not last forever.
Cold pain washed through me, coursing through every fiber of my being at the thought of losing it.
Excruciating agony rips at my nerves, tearing them away if I only dare thinking the thought.
So fresh, so sweet, so seducing, loving, that I know one day, it will be lost, and all I will have left is the vague memory of what I cherished more than life itself.
Memories burned into my mind, forever lurking at the surface of my conscious being, tormenting me with the reminder of what I once had, what I held in my hands, the sweet taste of what was too good to be true.
All I would have, gray where there was once color.
Frustration, where there were once passion.
Tears of sadness, where there were once tears of joy.
Chilly touch of the icy abyss, where there once were the warm passionate touch of heaven.

Hmmm...this poem reminds of a very famous poem that I remember having read somewhere, though I've forgotten its name. Unconscious inspiration, maybe?

Very unlikely; I never read poems

Even Stephanie Meyer can wrote a better poem. This work, in my humble opinion, seems to have been made by a depressed chubby one that, trying to express the absurdity of her existence, for lack of talent, cannot say anything.
