A Kiss

[Mortdefides]

Kissing is like drinking saltwater: you drink and your thirst increases.
- Chinese proverb

I can’t feel, I can’t think
I can’t speak, I can’t be.
My lips burn and shrink
for love you gave to me.

Beneath the stains of time
You and me…
In the shadow of the pine
You and me…

The bells in my mind
Groan and shriek
While my feelings wind
So dim, so weak.

Have I kissed thee?
Was it a dream?
Oh, let it be, let it be
my lips scream.

The swords of light
Pierce my heart once more
In the sweetest delight
No raven says “Nevermore!”

Now thou are gone and gone am I.
It’s not for sure, but just maybe
Where the dark pine’s shadow lie
We kissed, my baby.
