Faded Kisses

Faded are your kisses, they never last long

as I cannot find a place to store my heart.

I give and inevitably revoke

walking such a thin line

swaying back and forth with the changing breeze. 

I love and inevitably regret

all the while holding on to secrets

or truths that I am too afraid to tell you.

I feel and inevitably forsake

when I tire of dangling my heart in front of you.

Waiting for you to reach out for it.

Faded are your kisses, because you never stay long.

Gosh, this is so beautiful. Forlorn. Well chosen words. Really well penned.

[Antonio Prov.]

Lovely poem! I like the way you write, it rings honesty.
