First Place

All the kisses in a lifetime I shan’t miss ~ it can’t compare to a dusky night’s golden kiss — I Am Anaya

A Kiss In The Dark

Only one shall be the kiss
   an elixir pressing
      metal into gold
         nothing else exists 
            bold lips sinking into mine
               embracing what will become
                  an unforgettable nocturne 
   
                                                  Our bodies melting
                                             soaked in the depths
                                          of dopamine’s lifts
                                      all control drifts 
                                   losing myself in you

Pieces of me
     illuminate and soar
         nothing else exists
             Light disappears into
                  night’s darkness… 
                                           
and nothing else exists
   except warm and tender arousal
        a golden spark
             of a kiss in the dark
