Kiss

I had only
Locked lips
With you
Once
(that was all
I neededtoknow
that you never
Loved me)

I couldn't
Seem to
Taste
The relevance
Behind your
Witting tongue
(Mine too afraid
To speak)

I only wanted
You
To love me
(With all your
Worth)
-and realize now
your worth
wasn't much
but 2 cents
in my pocket-

And a lifetimeofpain

Yours was
The sweetest kiss
(I never knew)
All I wanted
Was a simple
Gesture of
j'taime, mon cherre
mon petite
femme
I only hated you
In the winter
And loved you
In the spring
(I favored your kiss
In the summer)
But you always
Let me down
In the fall...

I wish I knew
That kiss meant
Good bye
(The day before
I said
I love you)

The sweetest kiss
I never knew
Was the only one
I never had
With you..
