Kiss
Pleasantries of silk and Chapstick
Collide time and time again
It’s supposed to mean something more
Than just an exchange of bodily sins
Were supposed to exchange words unspoken
Secreted love and blissful pretense
Passions of each others day
Sealed with a moments notice of suspense
I don’t want a kiss….I want this
A fickle of a heart turned inside out
Your tears…let me massage them away
I promise every pain I’ll draw from the inside out
Every pair of lips met is not meant to touch
So, I no longer want to get this mistaken
I forgot how it felt to be left speechless
All when he decides to capture my words into his safe haven
That movie kind of kiss that draws a tear to an eye
An arm around a once unwelcoming shoulder
A Kodak moment manifested
The kind that makes me want to write the LORD a thank you letter
I’m tired of let’s pass the moment kisses
The ones you do just for protocol
Those that linger in redundancy
Kisses followed by more alcohol
I want a preserved kiss
One that waits all day just to meet me again
One I’ll never get tired of
A kiss that covers the multitude of sins
Cinderella, snow white, sleeping beauty…
Spell breaking kind of kiss
A wake up in the night with cold sweats
Because I forgot to give and get….kind of kiss
That forgiving kiss
The type that makes you forget what day it is
Make you spend the whole day with your shirt on backwards
Don’t care if you lose your job as long as you got this
A kiss that makes you second guess heaven
Might make you spend a night in hell
But when you wake up in the morning
You’ll still choose to remain under the spell
I’m talking spine tingling
Half on a baby in the elevator kind of thing
Mistletoe don’t even wanna come around
Skip the dinner, straight to desert kind of thing
I’m talking that sojourner truth bring you back to your roots
Slave to its capabilities
Tied down to the abyss of his mind I’m talking old skool wish I could go back to my youth
All shades of blue melted into brown
Frowns turned upside down
Clocks roll backwards to recapture this moment
The type you’d wish you could submerge and drown
Rhythmic and mathematical
Algebraic equations
I’m talking tongue twisting quadrilateral
Tougher…no deeper than a laceration
I want this…Lord knows I yearn this kiss
it’s supposed to mean more than a friendly exchange
Am I the only one left in the world who feels this way?
I’d give anything if this kiss….I could locate!!!
