    I absolutely adored reading this poem. You did an outstanding job writing it!

    'sticky puddles', 'ingrained in my skin', and 'scattered on my flesh'
    ^^ Such vivid imagery, kudos for such word usage.

    'but in time it shall be replaced, by a better flavour'
    - Though I don't believe the comma should be there, it's such an amazing ending to such a short, yet sweet and emotional poem.

    The emotional boundaries set in this poem are amazing, followed by the imagery and the flow you've put through-out. It also seems you did a swell job with keeping the syllable count intact (:
