Your kiss is more than simply lips to lips
Come kiss me with your heated breath and tongue
Your kiss goes far beyond the fingertips
I trace across your lips: a song unsung
Your mouth becomes a passage to your soul
This act becomes a breach of space and time
Like chaos losing ground to self control
Or poetry surrendering to rhyme
But when you slide your hands behind my neck
And let your hair fall all around your face
And when you know my will is held in check
Your kiss becomes my solitary grace
My world contracts to nothing less than this
Where nothing else exists except your kiss.
