Bland

The mouthwatering goodness ceases to exist,

Sweet sensation of Starbucks is no more,

Not knowing if I'm allergic to anything I put in my mouth.

Flavor of a roller coaster I once knew is still.

Cannot taste the clumpy milk of rottenness.

The Italian, garlicky deliciousness became bland,

I can feel the burn of coffee but

Cannot taste the hazelnut.

The great part is I can now drink nasty black coffee

And disgusting cherry cough syrup when I'm sick.

The downside is

My worst enemy could poison me,

And I won't even know.
