Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me
I kissed my best friend on the cheek
and she giggled.
I did too.
My lip gloss left sticky prints on her skin
that she wiped away
with her sleeve.
I wanted to kiss you before I knew what kissing was.
I watched you grow into something
more than just another boy.
Tracing my lip with my fingertip and wondering…
Are yours dry and hungry like mine?
Or soft and sweet?
They were warmer than I imagined,
brushing hot breath across my palm
and my wrists.
Your quick pecks tickled,
your eyes wide and playful,
your smile set me
alight.
Flushed cheeks and heartbeat gone frantic,
I didn’t kiss you back...
Not like I wanted to
No tears left to fall because they're all frozen.
All the pieces of my heart, lost and broken.
I like to think they're under the sea
Where no one can find them, not even me.
