The Silent KISS

Quote" I choose to kiss you in the wind, for the wind is gentler than my lips."By Rumi
*************
Wrapped in the warmth of your tender sigh
As night enfolds us, I merge with you in the sky
Amidst the silent serenade of whispering moans
Our lips meet in a yielding kiss, devoid of tones.
A gentle kiss upon the brow, silent, unseen
A whisper of flesh, soul, and hopes to glean
No spotlights or large displays of zeal—
Only hope, steady, and unwavering to reveal.
It doesn't blaze with fury or crave limelight
It settles in such silence, soft and polite
A pause in the chaos, a breath in the race
A gentle reminder: you have a safe space.
It rests on your brow such as calm at night
As hands that cradle when the world is contrite
A peace that lingers when tempests depart
No words to remember, just the silence of the heart
Our hearts echo a whisper, as a dove
A delicate caress, a breeze of cosmic love.
