Public Kiss

As you sauntered outside from the little tea house, I perfected my smile to make you feel aroused. And I could not take off my eyes watching you smoke. How could nighttime be filled with white clouds when you spoke? I adore those tattooed roses that grew in your right arm. They seem to be divine; They look like your charm. But I got to say it worked well when you looked me in the eyes. I asked one inane question; Have I loved you in a while? I did not want to head back home if only I had that choice. I would have gotten a bottle of beer and made some noise. Perhaps, we could spend some other time doing what we want. I love to go to distant places; “Is that what you also want?” As I strolled my feet away from the small round table where you stood, You asked for a kiss; Then we made out as we should. It was a slow-motion moment and I feel nobody was around. I heard my heartbeats drumming; This love, I am drowned.
