Kiss Poem by Andrus Cassian

Kiss
One word to describe an endless lifetime
Kiss
The sweetest thing, the sweetest taste and the worst thing to be taken away
Kiss
One solid moment, a product of slow motion; fireworks cascade, decorate the sky
Kiss
Never could a small moment make someone feel more alive
And tear someone completely down when deprived
Kiss
As passionate as a wedding ring intertwined with a lonely rose petal
Smelling of honey, of delight, delightful excitement
Kiss
As frightening as a thunderous, destructive, lightning storm causing immense panic
Kiss
Could make a man do perpetual back flips and handstands
Could make a man addicted to love and other drugs
Could make a man keep coming back for more
Kiss
Could make a man become questionable, filled with doubt and puzzlement
Could make a man fearful for the next time around
Kiss
Could make a woman sing harmoniously for a thousand days, in a thousand ways
Could make a woman melt in place from the brief intensity
Could make a woman smile endlessly, dreaming happily
Kiss
Could make a woman feel regret unlike any other
Could make a woman burst into tear, feel indecisive
Kiss
The perfect weapon of ultimate happiness, the perfect weapon of destructive breakdown
Kiss
A hopeful wish on a cluster of stars
To cement the idea an angel would be able to kiss goodnight to a hopeful someone
Kiss
A daylight dream amongst a boring scene, attempting to capture a realistic moment
Like catching fireflies in a jar in the eyes of this maid
Waiting to be a proud queen to a king
Kiss
The one panacea known to evaporate the lurking sadness of a day laying siege like pirates
Kiss
The remedy for dying by a thousand cuts
Yet still finding the strength to defy the demon and stand up once more
Kiss
Kiss…kiss…kiss…kiss…
Another moment to chalk up a point for happiness
The perfect weapon of destructive breakdown
A firework spectacle; the sweetest feeling, the sweetest taste
Worth dying by a thousand cuts, the remedy to bring the dead inside alive and well again
As passionate as a wedding ring intertwined with a lonely rose petal
Smelling of honey, of delight, delightful excitement
A hopeful wish on a cluster of stars to cement the idea an angel would be able
To kiss goodnight to a hopeful someone
Kiss…
