the last kiss


under cool moonlight
your soft lips caressing mine
making my heart swell
we did not know it would be
the last tender kiss we share

  3. I imagined your heart swelled like the moon and then shrunk to a crescent. That last kiss really lasts.

  5. Maybe if you had known it to be the last you would not have enjoyed it as much.

  6. Beautifully poignant. We never know that, do we? But Brudberg makes a very valid point.
