It's Just A Kiss

It's just a kiss!

Our eyes met and I knew.

I wanted to be kissing you.

You weren't sure what to think.

But you knew, too, I would be kissing you!

I approached, you didn't back away.

My eyes begging you to stay.

I told you once "I'm going to kiss you"

Then I step within your space.

I grabbed your hand, and wrapped it around me, for a tight embrace.

In a quick moment my lips were on yours

Soft, tender, sensual.

I hunger for more.

Our lips pressed together our tongues explore

Yes, I do want more.

I feel dizzy.

Am I breathing on my own or borrowing breath from you?

You step away and look at me

Am I the girl you wanted to see?

Only time will tell

Only the future will see

Will there be a you ~ with me?

Or is a kiss just a kiss

And that's all it will ever be?

Closed Heart

There's a door over there no one uses any more.

Some have forgotten it exists.

The locks were changed.

 Dust moved in.

Not even a strong wind could get you in.

The keeper cries, occasionally.

For once she shared the beauty that was within.

Till she learned it must be hidden.

Now, she waits!

No tears to shed, no laughter to hear.

Everything good is gathered ~ in there.

No one knows what she waits for.

Maybe, not even she.

Maybe a day when she might find, courage to open the door, and leave the key behind?

Maybe someone good will see.

All that she was meant to be.

But, till then she guards the door.

Never asking for anything more.

Who is strong enough to see,

The girl who hides behind a golden key?

Whisper to me

Whisper to me a sweet melody

Wrap me within your strong loving arms

Stay close, so not even the sun can sneak between us.

Let us sway together within and against the wind

Gently trace the lines on my face

Kiss my lips briefly

Say you will never leave me.

As I open my eyes

I look to the sky

A tear runs down my cheek

I rock on the porch, in our swing built for two,

and wonder why you left?

Our lazy cat gently brushes her tail against my face

The blanket wrapped around me once warmed you too

Your scent fills my senses

I lean back, close my eyes, and pray for you

Come to me

Dance with me

Make me smile again

You are the man of my dreams

I wait for sleep to help me escape

Happiness is finding you

Again.
