One Kiss

All I am asking for is one kiss One sweet, sorrowful kiss Like the ones we used to share When we were young How my lips have missed your lips How my tongue has missed you tongue How I hunger, how I ache How I wake in a fever pitch And imagine myself back on those nights Those cold, frosty nights When we would huddle for warmth under your blankets When you would trail your fingers Up my stomach under my shirt Back when my skin was soft and naïve to your touch When you would press your body against my body Nuzzle me in the crook of my neck Back when we were so inexperienced When your lips just barely touched mine And mine just barely touched yours Back when things were still innocent between us Before we grew up and grew out Before we became awkward Before we were corrupted Now when I see you Foolish thoughts roll through my mind Of what could never be And I wish that I could have one last kiss To quiet my thoughts To satisfy my lust To end all kisses So I don’t ever miss you again.
