I Want To Kiss You

I want to kiss you
Your lips send endless invitation,
And I crave the sweetness therein,
For It is like the honey that flows from the vineyards of timnah.

I want to kiss you.
I desire to wipe every gloss on your lip with the gusto of my tongue.
The parting of your lips is like the road between the red Sea,
And I want to walk in there. I wouldn't mind if I still manage to drown.

I want to kiss you
With my hands holding your symmetric hips, 
Teeth smashing teeth,
Tongue greeting tongue,
And our lips embracing each other in no particular rhythm.

I want to kiss you
The softness of your lips reminds me of your heart - how soft and kindhearted you are.
The whiteness of your teeth reminds me the purity of your love.
But the whole of you is the definition of my cravings.

I want to kiss you, 
But that is not all I want.
I want all of you.
