I'm going to tell you a story
It's been written before
the only difference is
it doesn't hurt to write it now
No
not anymore

I used to have passionate kisses
upside down
our lips would fit together like zing-zang pieces
ones that squeaked and made funny noises
soft ones
like full blooming petals from scarlet Roses

The stars were brighter back then
and we would pretend
that all those stars were only ours
but all good things must come to an end
then all that's left is purple scars
and only time to let them mend

Time sped by
when her and I
saw eye to eye
we only knew white lies
and butterflies
and..
love

my heart fluttered as if a dove
how naive was I to place all faith in love
when a wraith named lust
could easily blow me away
like red hot sulfur had burned me to dust

Didn't she know that only tin men rust
I thought she knew that love was trust
how can I go on
selfishly she said I must

Fine then..

Block out the light
for now the world will only see me
counting stars alone at night
a ghost of mine left behind
but I will be alright

Come closer here
and listen with both ears
forget me now
I wish to disappear

so long our crystal Christmas's
farewell our wishing well wishes
and I will miss you most of all
our passionate
upside down

kisses...


By: Roberto Loera

a soft warmth
as lips meet
and taste sweet
anticipation
a soft gasp
tongues flickering fast
lightly
dancing briefly
a heightened
introduction
to pleasures
forthcoming
is this ...
... our first kiss

Very nice Roberto. I think many of us have been here and felt like this at some point. Lots of great lines in this piece.
