A Kiss

by Mickey B. - Capricorn

A Kiss

What’s in a kiss
when you know that it’s
not what it seems,
what does it mean
Fragments of a dream
Vivid, shimmering and
not quite real,
Lips meeting, fleetingly,
just long enough to
capture the feel but not 
not so long to seal
the bond or
close the deal.

What’s in a kiss,
What did we miss
here and there,
where did that magic disappear
Bobbing and weaving its way
down the fickle stream of time
and space, what can erase
that contented glow from your face,
So fair and fine
Just a trace 
of doubt showing on your lips,
with mine full of lipstick
and bliss.
