*Title Needed*

Brush my cheek
Kiss your hand.
Eyes lock.
Breathing stops.
Out into the street,
Out into the night.
Away from eyes,
From ears,
Noise and interruption.
Look at the stars
Fighting against city lights.
Off the street.
Away from eyes.
Back against the wall.
Hard, hot kisses.
In this moment
"Everything"
and "Nothing"
Carry the same weight
In the dark.
Touch, caress,
Dangerous, urgent.
A moan, a sigh
Released into a kiss
To muffle the sound
Away from ears
That don't care
And would rather not know.
Brush your cheek.
Kiss my hair.
Back out into the street,
Into the night.

"Escaping" might make a decent title.

I like the meaning behind this poem. It's like, I don't really care who knows, as long as I'm with you. At the same time, it's saying that you want to be alone. Like everything is so riveted on this girl that nothing else is important and you want to keep that to yourself. It'se very sweet.

I especially like "Away from eyes,/ from ears,/ Noise and interruption." It lacks parallel structure required in English grammar, but it's more effective. It drives home the feeling of being set appart that I see in the poem. Love it, D.

"A Kiss into Light"

[E.V. Black]

I think you should call this "Into the Night" after the last line. It would make sense because all of the desire in the poem is dissipating into the night.
