You Haven't Kissed Me
Say It Again
So much in common
Stories given voice
I smile
You smile
- yet -
You haven't kissed me
*
Laughter shared
Walks in the park
I smile
You smile
- yet -
You haven't kissed me
*
Meals together
Movies enjoyed
Tentative touches
- yet -
You haven't kissed me
*
You warn me
There's a chance of it
The next time we meet
You finally did
Wow!
My head spins
Time slows
Bonds deepen
How we enjoy each other
*
You passed in the night
Time slowed
No more
Stories,
Smiles,
Laughter,
Walks,
Meals
- Since then -
You haven't kissed me
Other than in my dreams
*
Author’s note: This is based on true events. My rapscalious late husband took his sweet time kissing me, and then warned me it was coming.
RIP, Ted.
