The Kiss That Wrote

Help

Suicide

Have you eaten all the numbers?

One through six steps,

But there's always number amber...

They don't tell you about the flower petals falling;

Like shaved off finger prints so you could loose your identity,

All from closed eye lips that talk kisses and caress while re-opening wounds.

They don't tell you about the feeling;

'Cause they can't explain...

How do you describe an open mouth kissed?

Tongues twisting warm as they sweat from embrace,

Lips feeling pale, for neither has taken a breath,

Both staying connected through that thin skinned touch;

Under, blood flowing currents; that's how they blush.

All cowering down to a simple word:

Hush

Help

I'm not ready
