A Stolen Kiss
Before we parted
We stood
In the hallway,
Wordless.
I lift your chin,
You smile.
I hold your face
Gently.
And steal a kiss
From you.
Our lips gently
Pressed.
Our breaths shallow,
Eyes closed.
Neither of us
Moving.
Only our lips
Matter.
Then I must leave.
Only so
I may come back;
And return
The kiss I stole.
