no title (a kiss?)

[amanda_isabel]

the chilly draft enters
past drenched curtains
blowing out the candles
by which i take
my evening meal.
an otherwise romantic setting,
my heart is dark.
i have no one to kiss.
all else kisses her now.

What I find especially lovely about this is the delicacy of it & the lack of self-pity.

I am far too new around here to know much, if anything, about forum members, but i do get a feeling as to what this beautiful poem might be about, but i shall not presume to make guesses...

Thanks for the welcome!

goldenrod.
