Your Kiss
A connection unbreakable
enveloped in desire
abandonment
lips meet
complete surrender
home finally, home
Oh, that kiss
And everyone after
words can never describe
memories will never subside
a want seeking fulfillment
a place only lovers know
That kiss
stole my soul
imprisoned my heart
fulfilled every fantasy
more
please, more
That kiss
surpassed all dreams
nourished every wish
but time plays a cruel game
distance more harsh
still memories recall
That kiss
even today, years beyond
it's
that kiss
that I desire
and my heart requires.

Wow, Renee, you're so poetic. Perfect for THE KISS of course. I loved the memories so strong in this heart despite the passing of years. Very powerful and poignant. Thank you.
Brilliant Renee - thank you ... as Denise says ... it is poetic through and through. I've never experienced a kiss to this depth of thought ... but I know they are there ... one reads stories, it's seen in real life - excellent take on the prompt. I thoroughly enjoyed it ... Hilary
Fabulous! Full of memory and love!
Glad to see some poetry. A nicely describe perfect kiss goes a long way. Fitting for the prompt, the season, and more.
Love your poem! Absolutely love it.
Lovely imagery
Very nice. I can sense the longing and the fond memories.

So pleased to read a poem entry! Home as metaphor for the kiss is just perfect. A great sense of yearning. Beautiful!
Ever since I've learned about the prompt, I've expected soothing poems. Finally, i got one. Thank you.

I'm imagining that kiss and how it would linger in memory forever. Loved the poem, Yolanda.
I always enjoy a good poem! Excellently written and perfect for the prompt!
Really nice. I like the shape of the poem,too.
Beautiful! I love the imagery and passion in your poem. What a wonderful memory of romance.
Sheer poetry for the prompt. The emotion was poignant and I liked how the early excitement at the kiss slowly gave way to yearning for more. Nice rhyming scheme too.
I was totally swept up in the passion! Fabulous poem, Yolanda. 👏👏👏
A beautifully written poem. Sorry that I am so dreadfully late in commenting.
