A Kiss is Not an act of Savagery
A kiss is not an act of savagery,
so let your lips purse,
my darling,
and let them become tender
for me
in Stan Hywet's garden.
A kiss
is not an invitation to war,
so let your guard down
as we make our way through my hallway
and into my bed.
You gave me
the tenderest moment there
when you caressed my back.
The smallest things
can make me feel loved
even among the biggest things.
Good night,
sleep tight,
I will not sleep tonight.
But yet,
tomorrow
I will miss tonight
and wish we could
capture it again.
