"I Could Kiss You..."

...yes...

"I Could Kiss You..."

...and you WOULD feel it
and so would I.

And if I did -
would my kiss add to the silence
as you lie there awake each night
- the silence amidst all the noise
we throw into our existence
and sort
and sort
and sort through
again and again
with each tossing and turning driven night
into day and everyday existence
we breathe and taste so hard inside
and outside until all we can see IS
"...Damn, I was kissed... damn..."

Author's Note

...yes...

More is being said here than merely one most obvious level... and even then more are being 'touched' than even they know...

[Kenneth The Poet]

Subtle, very subtle Chris.

'To feel the strength of any loving act is to reach a place in Heaven .. ' or some such words written by some such writer.

There are times when we know something can never be improved upon, it's the ultimate, it's the gift nobody else can ever equal, it's treasure, it's precious. It's called LOVE

[Everson Taveras]

Juicy and provocative. Well written.

[Muse]

This is divine, Chris...so many meanings, so little words. And that's poetry.

[Teri B]

You remind me of something I wrote...thanks for that! This is the best kind of kiss, isn't it? The one that weighs in and fills in...the one you can still tumble into, long after it's done.

Nicely told!

[sharonlee]

A thousand kisses deep ....sweet thoughts that shrink the reach of everyday existence....sigh....

[Amy Bumpas]

You are wicked indeed...LOL!!! I love this! This reminds me of what teenagers
feel when they are first kissed...the anticipation, going o bed with no else
on your mind but the kiss...the tossing and turning, and the anticipation
of another one yet again.

the silence amidst all the noise. That's what being in the moment does, as provoked by a kiss full with feeling here. Heartfelt and sincere poem.
