Lingering Kiss

He kissed her lips but once Gentle like sunshine Soft like morning breeze For her time stood still A lifetime had passed She felt her blood rushing Her cheeks blushing Her thoughts crashing Like a sand castle Her body quivering Unlike lonely coldness shivering Her heart pounding Like drums sounding In that fleeting moment She felt alive Her soul thawed of loneliness Her spirit took a lasting breath Her hope for love Evaded death Her shroud of sadness was lifted Into his lips she drifted An angel's song One kiss... Her wish granted In dream he faded. ( Crow Cries)
