Long Kiss Goodbye

It’s soft and gentle Not at all what I expected The initial reaction Left just a fraction Of retreat The body is more than meat? It’s throbbing again It’s boiling in It can’t stop now It doesn’t know how It’s so sharp But it sets you apart The pain isn’t bad It instead feels good I’m definitely a fan But we don’t know if we should What do we do? What do we say? When do we act? Can I kiss you today? The answers are here… We continue with patience and an open mind We tell each other what we want to say and what we’ve felt We act when we feel the time is right We kiss when you go the other ten percent
