The Kiss

The Kiss

your kiss is like a drug to me, 
your lips be oh so tender 

     I just can't get enough you see,
     feel like I'm on a bender

I kiss your neck, your ear, so sweet,
I breathe your wisp of lavender

     you have swept me off my feet,
     take it all in like a scavenger

collecting all, so I need not worry,
about when you are away

     I yearn for your sweet kiss my love,
     every night and day

I hold you fast in my embrace,
like a changeling seeking out its host

     I tell everyone about my love for you,
     yes, I admit I like to boast,

for you are the only one my love, 
the only one of whom I dream

     walking hand in hand in summers sun,
     or by nights bright moonbeam

when you're not here with me,
I know that something is amiss

     then all my fears vanish into night,
     when again your lips I kiss

I agree with Robert. You are not brilliant, my boy, but nor are you an incompetent writer.
