A Kiss Outside of Time

A Kiss Outside of Time By Rick Rucker I see you, walking over to me, My Heart skips a beat, how lucky can I be? To have the Love of a woman, so Divine, To have given your Heart to me, as I have given you mine. Now You are closer, I feel your heat, as we touch, I can’t believe that I could love anyone this much! Now, only inches apart, Our lips will end Time, as we let our kissing start! When first they brush, I lose track of Time, yet don’t want to rush. We have Forever, when I kiss You, I’m young, We will do this through Time, many love songs, as yet unsung! I gently explore your lips with my tongue, Just now, I hear the bells that have already rung, They are the signal of entry to Heaven, They buoy me so much, my spirits they leaven! Our Lips, locked together, I can’t think of whether We are two, or merely one, How long has it been since this Kiss has begun? We hold each other so tight, I feel, on my back, a Heavenly Light. Is it from the Sun, when we started, or rather the Moon? If we have been doing this for twenty four hours, would we end it too soon? All my Earthly possessions, I thee bequeath, I thought I was dying, but only forgot to breathe! In this Everlasting Embrace, I dare not open my eyes, to look upon your Face, That of an Angel so fair, Beauty and the Beast, others might think of our pair! Conjoined Lovers, starting first at the Lips, Now, seemingly, also at the Hips! Suddenly, the World has gone black, I pull away, roll over, gasping to gain the breath that I lack! You crawl over, lay your head on my chest, Whispering softly, that this time was the Best! My Heart, seconds ago, in some mad race, Seems to have resumed a more normal pace. How long can I do this, how much can I try? My answer? Only until I happily die! How many Mortals have loved one with Wings? Who has taught me many wondrous things! You have shown me both Love and mirth, And made my Life Heaven on Earth!
