The Sun Kissed Your Lips Before I

The sun kissed your lips before I 
Trespassing in our dusky room 
as night dressed a gown to die 
embracing her glorious doom.
 
A smile rose and faded away,
Blessing you with a red fair,
My heart trembles as you sway 
Carried by the unwanted pair. 
 
A sigh grew within your bosom, 
Moving with steady swiftness, 
With no trace of sunrise poison:
My name given with keenness. 
 
Then, I recall your sudden cry:
Love too, kissed you before I
