The Kiss

 

The kiss. 

The soft moist touching of souls. 

Lips, tongues, teeth. 

The mingling of breaths, the harmony of amalgamated flesh

The trembling discovery of how it tastes to be wanted

How many kinds of it? 

Long kiss, deep kiss, 

soft kiss, hard kiss, 

mad kiss, wanted kiss, stolen kiss, 

first kiss, last kiss, passionate kiss, 

kiss of hello's and kiss of goodbye's, 

kiss of a mother, kiss of a child,  

kiss of love and kiss of hatred, 

kiss of faith and kiss of betrayal, 

kiss of light and kiss of shadows, 

kiss of the fool, kiss of the crazy, 

kiss of the damned... 

Since there are as many kisses 

as there are humans upon this mad globe of fumes... 

...can a kiss can be just a kiss...

or a sigh, just a sigh?...
