How do you describe this thing that happens between us –?
And why is it called a kiss?
When happiness overflows,
And more than perfection exists.

The chemistry and friction
Electrical energy in between,
Drawing us together like magnets
Or some other force, unseen.

Your lips on mine, and mine on yours,
Making up for time spent apart,
Dancing a well-choreographed number
To the beat of each other’s heart.

My cheeks flush with happiness
As your hand caresses my face,
And I pull you tight against me
Closing that unnecessary space.

We break apart and I smile
And you return the grin,
I weave my fingers through yours
And let the aftereffects begin.

How do you describe this thing that happens between us –?
Made up of an electric current, dancing lips, flushed cheeks and bold smiles?
Why is it called a kiss?
Maybe because there’s simply no shorter word
To label this uncontrollable bliss.

well the guy i'm crazy about either hates me for what i did to him or is scared to get his heart broken again. i just wish he knew how i felt about him. he gives me butterflies and make my heart skip a beat when i see him and (corny alert) makes it hard to walk cuz he kinda makes my knees weak lol! but i saw this thing (which is now the background on my computer) that says "Never give up something you can't go a day without thinking about." so i'm not giving up on him...i'll wait...

Haha. Thanks so much! I actually started this a LONG time ago, but there wasn't any real feeling in it so I just saved it.... Lets just say now I recently experienced some feelings I could put into it :)

oh.....m...gee.....! Alex! This was sooooo beautiful! definately my favorite from you now! I really really felt:

Your lips on mine, and mine on yours,
Making up for time spent apart,
Dancing a well-choreographed number
To the beat of each other’s heart.

I could see and hear and feel that stanza! and i also absolutely love the last stanza! those were my favorites! gosh i can't describe how great this poem is!!!

"Why is it called a kiss? Maybe becuase there's simply no shorter word To label this uncuntrollable bliss."
